My Aunt Deedee called me a few weeks and said she was coming to Arizona for a few days with her friend Lindy. I was so excited, we don't get visitors here very often, and since I'm not going to see any of my family this year at Christmas, I was excited that my Aunt would be visiting. This month has been crazy for us with illness, all of us getting sick, ER visits, chest Xrays, swallow study. Deedee's visit has definitely been our highlight. My Aunt is a flight attendant, she and her friend Lindy arranged so that they had a layover in Arizona on their way back from China. They were here for a day and a half. It was such a great visit. They watched Eli while I took Isabelle to doctor apts. and to get tests done, brought fun toys from China for the kiddos to play with and basically just made our day! On Friday, I went to pick them up from the hotel and they were dressed like this (see the picture) standing in front of their hotel with a bag full of cleaning supplies. They cleaned my house from top to bottom, watched Eli while I took Isabelle to get a chest Xray, watched both kiddos and sent me out to get a pedicure and took me out to dinner. It was such a gift to me, it was so nice to come home to a clean house, to see my kids playing with Deedee and Lindy and having so much fun, getting to go out to eat, all of it was such a treat, especially when we've been so swamped with insurance drama, doctor apts, colds and the flu here. It was my own little Christmas miracle and so nice to just relax a little (thank you pedicure lady - it was wonderful). Eli adored Deedee and Lindy and we had so much fun with them. Here's hoping they come back soon!
