missing friends

This is Cora. She would do exactly this whenever Eli and I came to visit. She would just look up and stare at me. It really just tickled me. Then, eventually, she would pull herself up into my lap. Ugh! melt?! yeah...pretty quick.

Her mother and I secretly discussed our children's future together, but sadly, they left to move back home to Michigan this past week. :( We're happy for them to be closer to family, but sad to see them go.....and so stinkin' far!!

She's a cutie, there's no denying. Eli is definitely heart broken. Doesn't sleep good, won't eat his cheerios.....oh, l'amore.

Here, she's telling Eli all about it...how to pick the best block...


..no Eli, like this.
Eli focus! ok, ok. now give it all you got!


Ugh! we miss you guys already!! We're holdin' ya to that fun visit to Michigan some day!!

Hope you are settling in and happy to be back home. Miss ya!!
much love,
The Courters
