Grandma Comes to Town

At the end of February, my mom came to visit us, after spending some time in Idaho with my grandma who had had a pretty bad fall, and with my brother and his family during one of Chandler's surgeries. I love it when she comes to visit, not only because she spoils us positively rotten, which she does, but because I feel strengthened, having her around. She is my personal balm of Gilead.






We talked and laughed and cried and played. I loved, and appreciated, every minute. And look! We even got some smiles out of Clark! These were taken after Mom treated us to see The Princess and the Frog. I loved it. Clark wanted to go home after the first five minutes. But once we got outside, we just sat and enjoyed the sunshine and the fountain. The trees and flowers. It was such a beautiful day.

Oh, man! How FUN to have your mom come visit. We sure do love that lady. I'm sad we didn't know she was in town. I would have loved to have chatted with her and gotten caught up- I miss her. Although, I understand your time with her is precious. I'm glad you had a good visit. Give her my love.

Your mom is awesome! I'm sure her visits are even all the sweeter since they are few and far between. It must be so hard to let her go home! Glad you had fun...
