Alicia

She has to return home tomorrow.

Whenever we talk about it she starts crying. She has gotten to know us in the 3 weeks she’s been here. Liz is going to miss her profoundly as she has been spending all of those days, into the night, as her side.

It is so pleasant to watch them together, laughing, talking, bathing little Brandon. We will surely miss her, too, when she leaves. All too soon the 3 weeks has come and gone. Too soon.

She goes back to Los Altos, but we will see her again in the near future. Once little Brandon is big enough to travel, we will all take a much needed few days in Los Altos, and get away from the city. Get away to a bit of Heaven on Earth.

Until then, stay happy, stay healthy, stay safe. Wash your hands, cover your mouth, and protect your loved ones.
