It's been fun, but I'm ready to have them back now.

Well, I've had a lovely time being a single mom-of-one these last few days. I've driven all over town, spent some quality time with my cousin, hung out with my sister and her hub, ate a lot of ham sandwiches and fixed a few things in the house, between a lot of baking. Sent off the Christmas gifts, gave Lewis some serious undivided attention and watched a fair amount of T.V. But I'm ready to see Art and Ben and get my family back together. I can't wait to hear Art tell me about whatever he chooses to tell me about, to make a meal for everyone and watch Top Chef with Ben!!! It's so quiet at night. I want to talk to Ben about Obama's choice for Inauguration Invocation and beat him in 36-pair memory. And I want to play Jenga with Art and I KNOW that Lewis misses Art. Even when Art doesn't want Lewis around Lewis is still intrigued and excited to see his brother. I really do think that Art is Lewis's favorite person.

"Brother". Makes me think of some of Arthur's most endearing mispronunciations. Here's another list to add to the old one.

bruzzer
fruit lezzer
closs
todegger
planno

We especially like fruit lezzer. I have a lot of it waiting for him in the cupboard. Your snack drawer will be ready when you arrive, Art! See you soon! love Mom
