['My family said they were going to be coming in for a visit. I really wanted to see them and thought there was a good chance they would come!', 'That is exciting!  Did they come?', 'Yes! It was so wonderful to see them because we have a small family, and I just love visiting.']
I enjoy visiting with my family too.  Unfortunately, I don't get to see them that often.  But when we do, I have a lot of fun.  Did you do anything special?
