This afternoon, my two sister-in-laws came over for lunch and a gift exchange. Both Eva and Jami were sick over Christmas so we didn't get to see them at our family gatherings. Earlier in the week I invited them over today so we could spend some time together and was so glad when they both said they could make it (even though both their hubbys couldn't). I made a big pot of soup and some sandwiches and we sat and talked while we ate. We opened gifts and played Scrabble on the iPad after lunch. My nephew, Alex, was so sweet to Nicholas and played with him the entire time. He lined up the cars he brought over right in front of Nicholas and the two boys made car sounds and had so much fun together. It made my heart so happy to see Nicholas interacting with his cousin. It was a wonderful way to spend the last day of 2010!
