melancholy
Unfortunately, due to prior engagements, Jayne's pizza party will consist of exactly six kids - herself, her siblings, and Wyatt's family.
Everyone else has football or soccer practice (Justin and Sierra) or are moving back with her parents (good thing! But leaving today) (Kimber) or have long-lost relatives visiting (stepbro's wife and thus all four cousins) or will already be at dinner on Friday (my sis' kids.)
I feel so badly for Jayne - not over the pizza because she's going to have a good old blast anyway with the six kids that will be there, but that Kimber is moving.
Kimber and her sister and mom moved in with their grandmother, up the street a few blocks, this past year while Kimber's parents were separated. Kimber and her sister spent the weekends with dad and the week with mom, in that traditional arrangement of visitation...and now they're back together and moving back to the coast today. Which is great and I'm so happy for them (and I got a Kimber hug!) but that's the second close friend Jayne has had that has moved away.
In a way, it's ironic - my best friend in first grade, and still close in second grade although she was in a different classroom, was a girl named Jayne.

She's the girl on the left; I'm in the middle. She's part of the reason I named my daughter Jayne, with that spelling. She was just a nice girl. I wish I could track her down again. She moved after second grade, just like Kimber is for Jayne here.
Makes me feel sad and melancholy.
Hopefully Kimber will call Jayne before she leaves. We do have her number on the coast, but...yeah.
