Not the last week but the following week Jesse and I drove down to see Jesse's mom and his niece Saphire. She had called us at 6:30 am that morning and said that they would be in town. They had gone to Calgary because they had a court hearing over the custody of Sapphire, as her mother had her taken away from her.
They were staying at the Port O Call in Calgary, and we went late at night as I was working the later night shift to go visit them. We arrived at their hotel at about 9:30 pm. It was funny because when we got to their hotel room Jesse's mom said to Saphire that her Uncle was here and she had the most grave look on her face. Saphire really did not look any different from when we had saw her last, she had grown just a little bit taller, her speech was better and her hair was longer. She really enjoyed anything Frozen, Minnie Mouse and was crazy over her samsung tablet that her grandma had gotten her. She is also as sassy as ever too, she had these earphones that were Minnie Mouse and she had asked that Jesse open them for her, but she really emphasized that they were HER minnie mouse earphones not HIS.
His mother was kind enough to bring us back some (actually quite a bit) of stuff from Costa Rica. She had gotten me a jewellery box with a butterfly that had the needle put in the middle to preserve them, she had gotten us both towels with what looked like costa rican colone's, she had brought back Jesse a shirt with a monkey on it and brought us both key chains. It was super nice of her and not necessary.
Saphire and I played hairdresser and she nearly made my scalp bleed by brushing so dang hard. Haha but I really enjoyed the little visit with his mom and his niece. It was really nice and I think that will be the last time in a really long time that we get to see them together.
