The hours long phone call I had with my baby brother.  He's bringing my mother over to see Rico and I, this fall.  It will be the first time I have seen my mom and brother since a few years ago.  And it will be their first time meeting my future husband.  Rico is beside himself with joy to meet my mom and brother.  And I am beyond filled with joy that Rico is mine and I am his and the fact that my mom and brother are so excited to meet him.
