BA BA BLACK SHEEP

Aunt Lia has been a real doll.  She has helped me finish putting the place together, been amazing with the boys, and as always has been awesome company-sharing her great positive energy.  She has lived with us in Atlanta for two summers while working at an internship, so the boys really consider her a part of the family.  
The hardest part about Lia coming is that she has to leave...we really would
 just love her to stay because she fits right in!  And, now that the boys have gotten used to her extended stays, anything less than a month just feels like a tease.  BUT, we are grateful for any time with her and have been having a blast.  If you are reading this, Lia, thanks so much for coming and helping!  On the first day of Lia's visit, she was looking off the front deck across the street at our neighbors-a little flock of jet black sheep.  She was pretty tired from the time change, and she looked at me and said, "Is that little lamb wearing a rain jacket...or was it just born?"  Turns out, it was just born!  He was still stuck in the amniotic sac.  The boys (and Lia and I) were amazed as we got to watch him take his first wobbly steps.  What a treat.  Switzerland is feeling more quaint by the minute!
