On February 16th, Merlyn spent her first night away from home by herself. She got to stay overnight at Aunt Claire's house. I took her and Berkleigh to Aunt Claire's while Bryan stayed home with the boys to cut wood. Then I dropped Berkleigh off at Grandma Faye's so I could help Bryan with wood at home.
Later that afternoon I took Carter and Myles to Faye and Jerry's and brought Berkleigh back home. The boys spent the night with Grandma Faye and Grandpapa.
That night it seemed strange to have an only child at home. Berkleigh was perfectly fine without her siblings, even at bedtime. She specifically asked to read books from Merlyn's room since Merlyn wasn't there.
The other three kids had lots of fun on their sleepovers. Merlyn still talks about her time with Aunt Claire and wants to go back soon, for two nights next time.
