I let the kids take the ornaments of my center piece and put them on the cake along with Colleens picture of when she was about 3 or  4 years old. They just left a little while ago to go back to Maryland. Now the house is so empty.  I will be going to Maryland next month for a few days with my son-in-law's mother. My daughter will be going to Arizona on a business trip and her husband will also be going a  buiness trip, so we are going to take  care  of the kids while they are away.  House won't be empty tomorrow  because I will have my daughter Amy's 4 kids here. They are off from school, so they will be coming over the rest of the week, while my daughter and son-in-law are at work. So I better rest up today.
