The Barnhart family was spending this week in Orlando and Meg, Doug and I went to visit them yesterday. Of all of the weeks for them to be in Florida, this one was perfect for us. We had time to spend with them. There was also a lot going on with my parents and it was nice to have family support. Plus, it almost felt like we were on vacation while we hung out at the resort pool and went to dinner as a large group.
It's hard sometimes not having any adult siblings of my own. Jackie and Jeannette are the closest that I have to that relationship on my side of the family. We have shared memories, support one another and cheer on each other's children even from a thousand miles away. I am glad that we have been able to maintain a relationship with them and my Aunt Jan after we moved. It takes more effort now, but it so worth it.
