Rachel Jones has arrived, jet-lagged and a bit shellshocked, from Kenya and so far we are having a wonderful time. She came in Thursday afternoon, I picked her up from the airport and we drove straight to Kapnos Taverna, a great Greek restaurant in Arlington, and had dinner (and, um, drinks. We were both pretty relaxed by the end of the meal!). Then we went across the street and bought a bunch of treats -- cupcakes, mostly -- and came home.
Little Rachel was SO excited to see Big Rachel -- she ran up and gave her a hug, and said, "I'm SO glad you're here! I missed you!" as only a heartfelt, sweet, 7-going-on-17 girl can. Big Rachel read to her and put her to bed while I ate a cupcake for dessert.
I ended up falling asleep reading at 12:30 a.m. and I didn't wake up this morning until 10 a.m. I guess I need the sleep.
