We talked to Keyana on the phone over the weekend. It has been a couple of weeks since we had been able to actually catch her and the last time we did we interrupted her playing a game with a couple of friends and the game won...lol. She didnt have time to take out of her busy schedule to do much more than to say I love you bye. Kids...lol.
Well this time she was much more talkative and she spent awhile talking to her Papa and then she wanted to talk to me. I was asking her about school and all that normal stuff and then I asked her about Easter. I always send her stuff. Lord I spoil her. I asked her what the Easter Bunny was sending her and she said candy. I asked her what she wanted the Easter Bunny to send her and out of the blue she said....I want the Easter Bunny to bring me my baby sister. Thats all he needs to do. I dont want any candy, I dont want any toys. I just want my baby sister!
I got such a lump in my throat. I told her ... baby, the bunny cant bring you McKenzie. We are too far away. She told me well draw a picture of her for me! I said I will do better than that, I will send you some pictures of her okay?? She said that was great.
Now...here is the issue. I have no idea if her mother will let the pictures go through. We always take pictures of Keyana and her brothers. It is no big deal to us. They are her brothers for heavens sake. A part of her. We would never deny them. I am even making up easter baskets for all of them! 2 kids that are no blood relation to me but because they are with her it would not be right for me to only send to her and them not get anything in the mail if she does. I do realize I am probably the only one of the three grandparents that does this though.
