Thankful Thursdays

Grammy comes tomorrow for a long visit, and we are ALL thrilled.  The girls have painted her welcome pictures, and there is a anticipatory excitement in the air.  Grammy is more than an extra pair of hands.  She is an amazing story teller, a creative playmate, a captive audience, a fellow singer, and . . . well I could go on for a long time.  Grammy is  . . . Grammy - no one can replace her.  I am sure we will have some fun pictures and possibly a few anecdotes of our time with Grammy.

It's funny how no matter how old I am, and actually I'm still pretty young, whenever my mommy comes I know that I as well will be cared for, pampered and things will be a bit easier.  She is an amazing example of what I would like to be, and provide for my girls - no matter what age they are.
Yes, Grammy is coming - and we are all very Thankful!

There is nothing in the world like a visit from Mom. I always laugh because the moment my mom is in my presence, I want to go straight to sleep. I have decided that its because when she is not with me, I am the "woman" of the house. I have to hold it all together. But when Mom comes, I can let go and lean on someone else. Its a beautiful thing! Enjoy your visit!

YIPPEE for your mom coming. Mine is coming today for almost 3 weeks. I sure need the help and a break.

I hope that you all have a really fun time while she is there. I also hope you get some R&R! Love that picture with the girls in their matching dresses. Too cute.

Thanks for getting my daughter back into blogging! It was good to hear your names mentioned in KD's ordination service the other night - and so very appropriate, given your strong friendship and mentorship :)

Blessings to You and Yours - esp. the Big Guy on this Father's Day!!!
