The itty bitties and I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon at my grandparent's home. My Pop's made his famous pizza! YUM! Jacob and Ella were spoiled with lovin from their MeMe and PawPaw, as well as from my grandparents and sister. To have them all under one roof was exactly what I needed! Best of all, my grandmother (MawMaw) remembered me for a minute. She cracked a joke that she's always cracked at my expense. Nobody got it, but me...and if I were able to escape the room, I would have cried. Instead, I gave silent praises to our Father.
When asked by mom: "There's Christy. Do you remember her?"
MawMaw, "Noooo. I don't see that face come around enough to remember her."
My mom instantly tried to console me...but I knew. She always said that, in every conversation I've probably ever had with her in my adulthood. Bless her. I adore her humor!!!
Just a few pics from our visit:



It's days like this that remind me of how much I need all of these people. Makes my hour and a half worth of distance feel like so much more.
Mom & Bill, You guys mean all the world to us. You are our constants, in this life, and we are forever grateful for the love that you both give. Seeing you both is so good for my heart...and the babes love their MeMe and PawPaw oodles.
Pops, All things will be restored!!! I am in awe over how well you're taking care of MawMaw. I can only imagine the physical and emotional toll it's taken out on you...but you never give up! I am so proud of you, and can imagine that your castle will be huge. Just like our distance in miles, my prayers and thoughts for you two are abundant. Love you both, and am so very grateful for the only grandparents I've ever known.
Relishing in His goodness...
