When it rains...

I am so bummed today. My mom just called at 7:30 this morning. Now, my entire familiy knows not to call between 1-3 pm (E's nap time - and lately mine too) and before 9 am. LOL. However, call me at midnight and I will talk to you until the cows come home (thank you insomnia)

Anyway, I digress. The one thing about having a huge family that is getting older is that they pass on. Another Uncle passed today. So sad. My great-aunt passed a month ago and that was a freak accident (she drove into the back of a bus) but my great uncle had alzheimers and, much like cancer, this was a blessing in disguise. My great aunt and her daughter (whom lives with them) haven't gotten much sleep in the past 6 months. My uncle 'left the building' about a year ago anyway, and my cousin prayed daily that when they woke up he would be in peace. ((cry)) It is just sad. I remember in gradeschool through high school where there was like a 7 year span where one person died per year. It is sad to see your family diminishing, but then happy on the other hand that two of us are preggo. Such mixed feelings, and yet so sad to deal with.
