My little sis Mary and her boyfriend Yoshi took the train out of Portland today and are back to their travelin' ways.Not sure where they are in the picture above, but I figure I have all rights to the pictures Mary uploaded onto my computer from her camera - he, he.
Though they will probably say they were here over the past couple of months just for the purpose of helping our parents move, truth is, Mary can't stay away from us for very long. Good thing. It was great having them around. They'd stop by for breakfast and coffee in the mornings, dinner and beer in the evenings, we'd go to the park to play with Esperanza, we hung out at Powells book store one morning, Mary did my dishes more times than I can count and they both are so good with Esperanza. They are funny and silly kids themselves, which goes over very well with Esperanza who needs constant entertainment. For me it was nice to have other adults around on a regular basis. The world around me tends to warp just a bit when it's just me and a toddler day after day after day. Mary and Yoshi are still very 'kid' at heart, but somehow they are also adult enough to bring me back and remind me that the world isn't completely controlled by my toddler.
And since I have them on my computer, here's a few cute pictures of Mary to share...
Have fun in Conneticut this Christmas (or was it New Hampshire? One of those states on the east coast I sometimes forget even exist) and wherever else your travels take you.
Thank you Mary for being you. Love you! And Yoshi...you better bring my sister back soon!
