Today was a pretty good day.
I took the little pea and we went to costco-did the big shopping.
We picked my mom, grandma (whose visiting this week) and little sister with us. WHEW!
I got a brainstorm, one way tickets are generally cheaper than round trip.
So I asked the oldest pea to look up prices for one way tickets back to Ok in June. They're running $300. Not terribly bad.
I asked if she'd come home in May if I could send her back by Fathers Day.
Then, we all can say a PLANNED goodbye, and she can help me sort through her stuff and get it donated or whatever before the "final move".
She was giddy with the idea.
I told her I'd give her a for sure answer if I could manage that by Sunday....
It came to my mind this morning after the littlest pea went to tears YET AGAIN over missing her sissy.
It won't mean she doesn't miss her sissy-but it will mean she knows sissy is going for a long time and won't be expecting her back soon. Also-she already knows that "after a new winter and snow comes and goes away-we are moving far away where the snow is less so much".
I love listening to her talk!
She talked her little head off today as we walked up the road to get the van (had to change the tires).
Maca is over, he's making steaks for he, me and GG. He called and offered and I thought that was cool. He's setting up the grill right now.
