Our little baby is officially one half year old. Gemma spent the day doing six month old things...sucking on her hands, slobbering, and giggling.
Our neighbor Catherine's son passed away suddenly and our street has been full of very distraught family members coming and going. Alex was such a sweet boy and took flowers over to Catherine. She was so appreciative and sobbing, we all almost lost it....so sad. Alex really knew something was up and he gave her a big hug. Every adult out there was pretty much crying. Then, Carmella gave him a big plate of "choplate" chip cookies. Mission accomplished. Score for Alex.
