"Uncle Joyce"

We had the privilege of having my Aunt Joyce here for 2 weeks. She spoiled me by cooking and keeping up with so many tasks that I can't seem to get done and by letting me go back to bed many mornings while she cared for all 3 kids! She thoroughly enjoyed her time with Owen and "baby bonding." What she loved most about her interactions with Owen was that he called her "Uncle Joyce." She asked us not to correct him because no one else calls her that . . . so she will remain Uncle Joyce (until Owen catches on :) and we miss her tons already now that she is back in her home in Newport News, VA. Even though God saw fit to take my mother from this earth before she could see and enjoy my children, I am SO thankful that her 6 sisters are still here to remind me of what she would have loved about seeing me as a mom and looking at and holding my little ones . . . Thank you Uncle Joyce!
