I spent the best weekend in Waukegan, Illinois, celebrating my nephew's birthday. Some people think that he won't remember that I was there, but I know better. That kids smart, just like his sisters. If he's anything like Megan, the oldest, he will have a memory like an elephant. So much has changed in the last month since I saw him. A month ago, he was standing and attempting to walk. Now, you have to catch him before he reaches the open gate at the stairs to the second floor of my sister's house.
The girls, Megan and Erin, love their little brother and it's so great to see all three of them interact with each other. Even though they are 4.5 years apart, I think they get along and play very well together. They remind me of the early relationship between me and my sister. Our difference in ages is 5.5 years. My sister was always gracious and generous with her time and her friends, letting her little sister tag along. I hope that Megan and Erin continue to have a solid sisterly relationship.
