Mom and Dad

How in the hell did you pull this off?! This second child has nearly brought me to tears. He is inconsolable at times. I am humbled by the fact that you guys had 6 children. I am almost at a loss for words to describe how frustrating and sad it is when you cannot console your baby. Lately, nothing seems to work. It is an incredible testament to your love of us children that you kept having more. You wanted 8 for god sakes are you crazy?! I am amazed she wanted to do it even twice let alone 6 times. I love you and appreciate you that much more, but something is wrong with you. Mentally. Get help. :)

Matty Michelle and Renee disregard all you have read above. Parenthood is wonderful. Have more babies. :)

Driving to Huntley from Edmonton = 2,564 km 1,594 miles!

The drive was really exciting for a while, I mostly drove . . . like 21 out of 30 hours . . .

Jack got sleepy on the drive
Matt did too, but he was awake for about 5 minutes and that is when we took this picture


Finally we got to Huntley and had a really nice time . . .



But then, another 30 hours in the Jeep, which made Jack crazy . . .







. . . but we love you all and wanted to say thanks for dropping plans and all of that to spend time with us on the surprise visit to Huntley . . .

God Bless You Mike and Lori



Mike and Lori,

I just wanted you both to know that I am thinking about you today and praying that everything goes well and that Lori will make a speedy recovery from the surgery.

I wish that I was there to make 'snuggles while watching a Cubs game' with your newborns more a tradition than a one time thing; but there is a gift in that day I spent with Gavin and I get a little teary when I think of it cause I miss that little man so much. I am sure I will easily find a gift in your new little fella, too! No doubt he will be full of gifts and wonder.

Hold your new little one close and love him and cherish him and most of all tell him that his Auntie Carmen, Uncle Matthew and cousin Jack can't wait to see him!!! Thinking of this, his special arrival day, makes me imagine the proper way to swaddle a baby up . . . I am folding the flannel receiving blankets in my mind . . .

Your growing family is ever present in our thoughts but more so today for obvious reasons. You are all amazing people (all 4 of you now) and when you come together as the family that you are you inspire and awe all those around you.

Bless you Barreto Clan 2 and hopefully we will see you at Christmas time!

Love,
Carmen

PS - Know that you have a confirmed babysitter the day we come in!!!

PPS - When I called Jack at school to tell him he had a new cousin he giggled with delight and was sooooooooooooooo excited he asked if he could tell his friends . . . he loves him and is so proud of his new cousin already!
