A Day with our two Grandsons!




Well today I started out with plans in place....with all my house work done yesterday, and windows sparkling, my plan was to attend the 11:00 AM service at church and then spend sometime with my sister Cindi. We were planning to go to the mall or something like that.

I had just gotten home from church when the phone rang...it was my daughter asking if I would mind babysitting. Of course not! I love my Emerson and Owen. Well, to make a long story short, nearly 3 hours later...I am wiping tongue streaks and finger prints from my sparkling windows, I am wiping spots from where the juice spilt where my feet are sort of sticking to the floor. There is pizza sauce on the arm of my dining room chairs where we all sat and shared a pizza. I never bounced so much on an exercise ball like I did today. "One more time Memere..pick me up and bounce" I feel like I am still going "Boing, Boing, Boing" LOl

But you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way. I love to hear their voices in my home..I love each and every finger print that is left behind. I love all the tongue marks on my windows. My home comes to life when my Grandsons come to visit.

Photos above are Owen with my Husband (Emerson said he did not want pictures taken today.) Another is a picture of Owen taking a time out from bouncing. He was plum worn out and so was I! Lol

This was a great day!

About Me

My photo
I am learning to navigate through life without my kids.Learning that I can do anything I set my mind to and that Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes. I am discovering that my happiness is not based on people...I am learning that happiness is from within, and is a gift from God. I am learning that when my eyes remain fixed upon Him...I can remain happy even with my grandsons so far away. I am learning it's ok to be me.
