Wave Bye-Bye
Well, the 5 days of visit from Uncle Penjo went by so quickly! On Sunday, we prepared Erik that his Uncle Jo was leaving by repeatedly saying and signing "Uncle Sit Airplane", "Uncle Bye-Bye", "Uncle Go Home". Then when his Uncle Jo said "Bye Bye" and preparing to pack his luggage in the guest room, Erik was quite concerned and walked solo from our living room, down the hallway, made a right turn, and into the guest room....all by himself!!! He wanted to spend time with his Uncle Jo!!
For the past few days, Erik got lots of 1:1 attention from his Uncle Jo! Either by playing, reading, or just plain ole' watching TV programs together! He even got fed and entertained by his uncle! It gave a nice break to Daddy and Mummy of course. Daddy finally got the opportunity to clean the kitchen and living room!! Mummy and Daddy got to watch a movie together ....okay, it was on DVD but still, uninterrupted, it was great! However, the bad part is that we all got a very bad cold, including poor Uncle Jo visiting from NYC! SIGH!
Anyhow, last night we decided that Erik and Mummy will drop Uncle Jo to the airport even though its way late and past Erik's bedtime. Still, we saw Erik's concerned look. Thus arriving at the airport, Erik was all bundled up and loving the bright lights and such. His uncle was already in line waiting for his bags to check-in. We asked Erik "Where is Uncle?"...and Erik's eyes scanned and scanned the crowd....and BINGO! He found his Uncle Jo!! All bright smile and such...he wanted to walk towards him but feeling perhaps a little shy! Erik would walk a few steps...then smile...and wave Bye-Bye! SO CUTE!
Afterwards, it was time to say Good-Bye. As the last kisses and hugs were given, Erik's face turned into concerned. His Uncle Jo gave one last squeeze and hug to Erik and walked towards to escalator to his gate. As his uncle was leaving, Erik gave him a flying kiss and waved bye-bye...but at the same time, Erik called out for his uncle ever so soft! Our poor little guy is missing his uncle already!! SIGH! Thus one last flying kisses all around...and uncle was off to NYC and we are a family of 3 again and Erik fell asleep in the car on the way home.
