Visit from Uncle Jon

My brother had a few days after the reunion before he had to fly back to North Carolina, so he came down to spend a day with us. My boys were thrilled! We went bowling and it was lots of fun. I tried to get a candid shot, but it didn't work out so well.

I would have taken another one, but I was so busy bowling and watching my boys bowl, that I just plum forgot. Oh well.

The boys loved having Jon here and can't wait till he comes back. In fact, five minutes after he left, Justin came up to me and said, "Mom, I think you and dad should take a trip to California." When I asked him why, he replied, "So uncle Jon can tend us."
Later that afternoon I found him crying in the kitchen. I figured he had gotten hurt on his bike, or lost a game to one of his brothers. I pulled him onto my lap and asked, "What happened, why are you crying?" He looked up at me with his tear filled eyes and said, "I just miss Jon so much."

So uncle Jon, know that you are loved and missed!
