Surprise Weekend

Friday, we got a wonderful surprise and treat! Our daughter packed up their 2 kids and brought them down to spend the weekend with us. They got here right before I got off work, so I was able to share my joy with those at work.

watching Mickey Mouse Club...
Puppy love.... all smiles ...



finding just the right toy...
None of them felt very good and were trying to catch a healing. But we enjoyed them so much. It was sad when they left. I know now what my mama meant when she would say, "couldn't you just leave ONE sound?" The house is so empty and quiet when they leave.

What a joy and pleasure it is to have children - what a reward to have grandchildren!
God is good!

Yeah, we had fun! I've never heard that before "couldn't you have just left one sound?" i like it...cute! I'm glad you let us just come on when I got the wild hair to go somewhere! We all needed a change of scenery for a few days and your house was the perfect place!

And Elsa....Ruth is due March 28th! Soon!!!
