As Lori said, our last visit was a hit. We had a great time and I look forward to the next time. It did have a different feel though. More-natural. Visiting family is always hectic, too many people, not enough hot water or toilets. You know the routine, but we never really seem to mind.
As we have more opportunity to see each other and the chances of this 'being the last time' is a thing of the past, we are truly growing into more of a family unit. We don't feel the overpowering urge to be close to each other constantly. It's not so surreal, now it's normal. Even when my sister came for dinner. It all flowed. How many people can say they can sit down to dinner with their biological family AND their adoptive one and no hostility, distrust or 'weird vibes'?? Not enough that's for sure.

    Oh isn't that the truth. I totally enjoy talking with your sister. She is so fun. AND SHE LOOKS GREAT. Hair is all grown back in, styled in a fashion I envy, she's dropped 50lbs. (That just pisses me off) She is not the bloated, bald sickly woman with no eye lashes, I met a few years back. There is nothing but respect and enjoyment when we are together. Almost unbelievable that we all mesh so well.

    Great time! Good luck to you all!You can't beat it can you, I've done various versions and it stills feels a bit spacey.
