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!

Surviving Summer

Feels like we have been 'enjoying' summer forever.  Here in GA, they get out of school VERY early - like May 23rd.  So, I have had the . . . pleasure of all 5 girls at home . . . all of the time.  This coupled with the fact that Stella has transitioned (ing) into a big girl bed & that Arturo has a lot of out of town trips, has thrown me a bit off schedule.  I've lost my groove.  Plus, no one told me how HOT Dublin, GA is.  I know some of you may be laughing since we came from the DR & with NO air, but - but - but - it's HOT here.  Like 102 +.  OK, we do have the air on, but it is NOT fun to go outside unless it's to someone's pool. hint, hint.  

Arturo leaves for the Dominican Republic this Saturday & praise God my mom is coming to be with us - did I already say PRAISE GOD!!!  It will be wonderful to have another pair of hands - and Grammy hand's are extra special.  We have already survived 2 out of town trips that Arturo has had this summer, so it will be nice to not just survive but enjoy time with each other & Grammy.  I am confident that our summer will get better with fun visits & hopefully some more structure in our day - yes, I would love your prayers.
