a second heart tugging
yesterday i went to visit my poolman and his twin girls, i was greeted at the door with, "auntie, auntie" and then proceeded to receive hugs and kisses. i went to deliver a huge pan of home made lasagne and a loaf of french bread. all three seemed excited to get a home cooked meal. while dan and i talked about insurance the girls cuddled and hung all over me. before i even got close enough to the door to leave they were both asking when i would come back again for another visit. these four year old twins are weighing heavy on my mind because it is so obvious that they miss their mom and just need a girl hug. all they know is that their mommy is away at work when in fact she is in baghdad fighting a war that is not ours. i am hoping to be able to deliver dinner once a week or so just to help give "dad" a break and to serve up a couple of hugs in hopes that these little angels will smile and giggle just a bit more.
