Dear Noah ad Dylan,
Your dad is back to the drawing board in the girlfriend department -off to ta running start and hit a wall. Anyway, I think he moved on but it was a tough one. We were all disappointed! I was looking forward to my new Colombian extended family and possibly more nieces and nephews, ha ha!
We had the privilege of your company overnight recently. Just last week your dad went to a baseball game. We read a couple stories that i ordered to teach empathy, studied spelling words, talked and watched the movie Holes with Uncle Joe. I let you guys sleep up in the loft. Noah slept on couch and Dylan on bench cushions in loft. I made you shower since you were smelling a bit gamey. It was your fist time using my shower downstairs. Dylan said "so it's ok if you see me naked because you did when I was little in the tubby, right?" I said, "Well, no, I would think you would now want more privacy now that you guys are older." I asked him to cover up so I could go in and adjust the water temp. We had a good laugh while Uncle Joe was away for work and were video talking. Uncle oe said he was with his parter, Mike Sweeney, and Noah started pissing himself laughing beaus he heard "Mike's weenie." Well, we all ended up in hysterics, especially your dad who could hardly breathe! Mike Sweeney has become a common name around us all now.
We saw each other for Mothers' Day breakfast also at the Elk's and then your dad dropped you off at your mom's. It was nice your dad thought of going out to breakfast together. And we went to a supper at the Grange again, this time without Diana. lLots of the same people were there and no raffle prize for us still, not even a rain gauge, fondly known of as a thermos, not thermometer (poor girl didnt' know the right word) and of course your shameless aunt was making fun.
We will see you again Saturday for another overnight since your dad has to go to a wedding. The woman getting married worked at Tens, a nightclub (strip club) so hopefully he doesn't meet date # 368, named Betty Boobs or something :-( Well, good thing you have a favorite aunt because I don't think you're ever going to have a stepmother! I'd like a nice sister-in law myself but in life we enjoy who and what we do have right now. I'm enjoying Ruby, Carlos, the 6 year old Labradoodle who stares at the gate all afternoon waiting for dinner or his mom, and Lucy, also a Labradoodle. We went for a long walk with Uncle Joe and the dogs this morning at Mill Pond.
You have been busy lately with baseball and both playing quite well. Noah, you pitched an incredible game the other day and Dylan hit a home run!!

High Hopes
March 24, 2016
New chapter? We were here (enclosed newspaper clipping about Rowley Grange Turkey Pie supper) with Uncle Joe, your dad and Diana, your dad's new friend!
Today is Uncle Don's 52nd birthday. We are oldies but goodies! So yesterday was very interesting!! Your dad came over with you both and his latest flame, Diana, from Colombia. She is very nice! I was worried because he sent me a picture of her from their first date (which was Friday) and she looked 16. Dad says she is 36. When you pulled up in the driveway I saw 3 doors open, not 4, so I thought maybe she dumped him already. Not that I didn't have confidence in your dad, ha ha! I was afraid to come out until I saw door #4 open and yes! Still going strong after three dates! They went out Friday and Saturday then to the Museum of Science on Monday (your dad played hooky ) and then yesterday, to meet us. We drove to the Graf Rink and walked the Rail Trail to downtown. It started out about 55 degrees and dropped to 40 at least. We were freezing! We walked through the shipyard over to the boardwalk just to see it and then went to find something to eat since Diana was on Colombian time and hadn't had lunch. We ended up at 12 State St and took a picture of the 4 of you together. You were both so quiet, maybe dazzled by a pretty face as Auntie Susan called it. We walked back along High St and returned to the car via the rail trail and went home to wait for Uncle Joe before we went out to the Grange supper. Dylan went to the loft and read his book "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" and Noah sat in the living room with us listening to every detail about his dad's bad date stories and how me and Uncle Joe met. She seemed to enjoy hearing them but Uncle Joe changed the subject fearing he was over the top. So she went on about her job in telecommunications, which Joe was fascinated by but my eyes glazed over. Your dad just made googly eyes. He is quite smitten! I hope it works out! It sure seems like it is going along quite smoothly! Although hopefully your dad didn't blow it when he said "You are the most beautiful woman here" when we were with all the old people at the Grange supper. I almost died! But she apparently has the same sense of humor. After I took a picture of you all, she wanted to see it so I showed her a picture of Pepito (one of the Cavaliers I take care of) and she said she looked really good. So hopefully, I didn't blow it for your dad if he didn't! Ha1 Ha! On our way out the door, Noah said "How come all these old people are here?" and we were walking right behind an old man and lady. I gave him the zip lips gesture which Dylan reinforced. When we got home Dylan had homework so Diana helped him at the kitchen table. Meanwhile, Noah and I had a nice chat in the living room and somehow the subject of Adam and Melissa "vapin" came up. It sounded like he was describing a bong but apparently it is a smokeless tobacco, kind of a new rage. Tobacco can have scents like clover and you inhale it through water. So it sounds like Adam and your mom are still together, but you said he hasnt' been swearing as much. Hopefully, everything is OK and there will be no more trouble there.
On the way to Dracut to drop off Diana at her friend's house, you guys got really silly and had everyone laughing. Your dad called me afterwards to tell me about it. They were asking you guys how to say some things in Spanish and Dylan just kept making farting sounds. Diana was peeing her pants so that is a good sign!
She wants to move to this area and have a family so if this works out, you may have more brothers and sisters coming. She is on fertility medication. She lost a baby with her first husband and the marriage fell apart. I could be an aunt again! You'd have to share me, ha ha! I would have to start a new journal to that child assuming I can still sit upright and write and not droop in a cup by then. I do hope your dad goes too Colombia to visit after she goes back next week. I already asked Auntie Susan to get ready for a trip in case this is a go. We could visit Lita in Peru and then go to Colombia.
