Right after school got out, Chris took us on a little getaway to Glenwood Springs. We stayed in the Hotel Colorado, and went swimming in the hot springs. We had so much fun, I would love to go again. On our way home, we took the scenic route through Aspen Colorado.
While we were lounging in the lawn chairs, a beautiful young woman and her husband? came and found a spot near us. She has cancer and was completely bald. Kyrie noticed her and pointed out her huge dangly earings. And she kept looking and said, "No, she's not a daddy!" I could tell she was a little confused. So I whispered in her ear about the situation. I told her she was really sick and takes some medicine, but the medicine makes her hair fall out. I told her when she is all done taking the medicine her hair will grow back. She whispered in my ear, "tell me that again, I didn't hear you". So I told her again. I knew she had heard me, it was just a lot to for her to take in. I then told her she was sick with cancer like Aunt Tina had, but Tina didn't ever get to take the medicine because she was too sick, and we left it at that. And ever since then she has been so concerned about Jaxon and Alek getting a new mommy. She talks about them all the time, and uses their names a lot like in place of Jack and Jill, it's Jaxon and Alek. She keeps saying that they have two mommies, one mommy at their house and one mommy in the air. And she has told me "Jaxon and Alek's new mommy is nice to me and she likes me".

What a fun post. You're a great mom, and Kyrie is a doll. Her little ruffle bum swim suit is to die for.
