and I finally got to meet her...

I finally got to meet my 1 year old niece Sasha and am so happy even though I make her cry cause she is shy. I did get to hold her momentarily when she was unawares in lifting her up to the window so she could watch Isaiah and Amán get on the school bus this morning.... Incredibly cute though she has made quick friends with the rest of the cousins as she has tooled around the house in search of stuff... James is considering grad school and there are some programs at Boston College and UMass Amherst that he is interested in.... And they all flew out to come talk to some of the professors and get a feel for the area. Aria and James thank you so much for making the trip out this way and atleast considering this area to live in... we would love you close. And along those lines, we have been SUPER (pero sobrepasado) helpful in hopes to facilitate the decision... (you know which one). Mom and Jere sent along a whole bunch of Volio coffee from CR AND some pinito which is basically powdered milk but we use it as cream in coffee in CR (mmmmmmmm what IS it about that stuff that makes the coffee soooo good???). They also sent some hanging baskets for fruit and such from the Puriscal area. Thanks so much for thinking of us. Anyway, I hear them pulling in now coming back from their drive to Boston today. I want to get as much of Sasha as possible before she goes down for the night.
