The Relatives Came  (By Cynthia Rylant)  The relatives came from near and far... Columbia, Philadelphia and South Sudan. 8 adults, 1 baby and 2 dogs. {Thankfully, 3 bathrooms} Valley Hand Clap for Ma who headed up the Christmas Eve Service Gathering. She also looked totally fab in her Christmas dress. High-five to Ben who slept on an old air mattress that deflated halfway through the night and for inviting Patch to sleep with him. The ParkerIIs slept in Caris' room and she bunked with us Christmas slumber parties rock my Christmas socks off!!
