Big Sister is Home!

Emily got home late last night from her trip to the Dominican Republic.  Super fun to talk with her on the drive home and this morning.

Yesterday I told Kate she would get a surprise in the morning. She kept asking what it was. Emily had said that they could come in to see her in the morning even if she was asleep. So when I went in to get the Littles and Kate asked again weekday the surprise was, I told Kate to go see who was in Emily and Amy's room. Emily heard us and was sitting on her bed when she opened the door.  Kate ran and gave her several big hugs and then immediately started talking about the Dragon float she'd seen yesterday. Daniel seemed a little confused but then have her a hug.

After breakfast, Daniel found this little rolling backpack and brought it over to Emily and pointed to his bag and her rolling bag. For the next fifteen minutes they walked around together with their bags. At almost every loop he would point to their bags and say, "Bag!"  She's so fun to play along. Glad she went and glad she's home!
