...was to meticulously re-create the pages of Ellie's adventure book for Julia, so she doesn't have to carry around her children's Bible and pretend it's an adventure book anymore. I had borrowed her DVD of Up so I had a template for the book, and yesterday I got a call at work. It went like this:Ali: Hello?
Jules: You will bring Russell back, please?
Ali: Oh, sweetheart, I will bring Russell back, the next time I come to your house.
Jules: You can come tonight, please?
Ali: Honey, I can't come tonight because there's a snowstorm.
Jules: But you will bring Russell back?
Ali: Can you put mommy on the phone?
Jen then explained to me that Julia asked to watch Up, was informed that "Aunt Ali has the DVD," and dragged a chair over to the kitchen phone and declared, "I will call her." Heartbreaking.
And then my co-worker berated me for stealing my niece's movies.

Ha, way to have your niece make you feel guilty while you make her an adorable gift.
And tell Jen she can instantly stream Up through Netflix now -- they just added it recently. Not that I keep my eye on the children's cartoon section or anything...
Aaaaahhhh! You can stream Up now? That's delightful news. I love Netflix streaming. Love it!
"i will call her" aaawwwwwww.
