Lately I've been having a rather pessimistic view of the world. It's tough when the kids are coming and constantly going.. I miss them a ton. My parent's used to describe our home after they leave as a tomb. It's so quiet and still.. it feels empty. We had an awesome trip this time, and I am so looking forward to seeing them again. I am so proud of every single one of them, as obnoxious and loud as they are (: They are such awesome kids. Dexter is hilarious. His sense of humor is just hilarious..and he is such a good kid. He is so smart. Honestly, their all smart. Haha. Isaac is such a sweety. His witty comments always make me laugh, their always so smart and they catch you completely off guard sometimes. Hannah is very much her own person. She is a very feisty, sassy girl - but inside her 12 year old self is one of the sweetest personalities. Jacob is the clown. He's such a ham, always wanting attention. But he also has this sweet side to him that is just very, very kind. I got to spend a lot of time with Katharine, and that was AWESOME (: She is so hilarious! Me, being an only child at home, with a naturally more thoughtful and sober nature, can make life too serious sometimes. It is so refreshing to have her lighten me up and see the world through funky, rose colored glasses (: She has this special, unique talent of just making me totally comfortable with being completely myself, and not really caring what anybody thinks. She's one of my best friends. We laugh so hard. It's something you don't know until you've experienced it, haha. I miss Adam and Peter. Their adorable. I can't wait to see them again. Families are awesome. They cause a lot of pain and heartache sometimes, but the joy and companionship is worth all the hard stuff a million times over. I am so grateful for my family. I wish I could see all of them all the time. But I'm so grateful for the time we can spend together. I don't take it for granted anymore. Someday I want a huge, loud, crazy family just like my own. Families are the best (:
