Richmond was great.  The actual welcome home party for Kundalini and for Queen has been postponed, because so many people couldn't make it yesterday.  But Will and I got to meet Kundalini, and congratulate Queen!  Will had a great time, getting to hang with so many of his aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents!  Seems everyone has appropriated Queen Quedith's nickname for Will, so now they all call him "yum yum" as in Will"yum".

Below are just a few shots from the day.  The one of me and Will and Jordon was taken by Will's cousin Isys.  I'm going to include a slideshow in another post of Jordon's shots.  She really is quite the young photographer.  I love watching her figure stuff out.  Yesterday, she was taking a shot of an aunt and some cousins, and they were backlit, and the sun was in Jordon's eyes.  She stood there for a while looking at the LCD and frowning, until she finally went over to the window to shut the curtain.  Her mother told her not to shut the curtain, so she thought for a second and then had the ladies turn around and face the light and put herself between them and the sunlight coming in.  It was so cool...she did it instinctively.   Later she told me that she's going to work with me.  and at the zoo, so I might see her there too.  So fun.
