i thought having sterling back was the all time pinnacle of family happiness...
but then chelsea surprised the family by driving all through the night from oregon - with kai in tow.
kaaaaaaiiiiii!
this sweet boy turns three in october and still makes us swoon by crawling inside a popcorn bowl and scooting himself around the house.
and bonus! since i saw him last, he's learned to pucker up and kiss liberally.
it all started with this text convo with aunt sandy in the middle of the day:
s: make sure you come tonight because we have a surprise for you!!!
a: what?! for me? a man in a handlebar mustache? i'll be there... after i track down our diet cokes.
s: ooooooh maaaaaan.... who told you?? no really, though, it does involve a man........
a: uhhhh..... like are you surprising me WITH a man? a girl needs to know these thing. but only if he's living and breathing. if he's the blow up kind, i won't bother putting on any lipstick.
s: you will definitely want lipstick.... there WILL be kissing involved!
a: icarumba. it better be kai. he's the only one worth kissing.....
in my head, the idea of kai actually making the 800 miles trek in my direction was too good to be true.
but i guess not... not when your bravest uncle comes home from afghanistan!
thank you ster, again. and again. and again. the benefits keep pouring out...
this is how our goodbye kiss really went down:
