Grammy doesn't look a day over 83 my youngest says |
They opened while they were here...
And as we were about to take Grammy on a drive through the mountains, she said, "I am going to put my glasses on so I don't miss one branch blowing in the wind."
And we enjoyed all the scenery, including these beautiful wild flowers. |
And an early Mother's Day Brunch at the Country Club turned into an afternoon on it's back porch in rockers ~ watching the kids play, laughing at the chipmunks running around, and listening to the birds chirp.
Well, Grammy walks real slow and deliberately, saying , "she walks like she is one hundred." She claims she does this because she fell a couple of years ago and broke her arm and she wants to be careful.
I am on to her though, I think she walks like she is one hundred because then you have time to enjoy every moment and the beauty in the world....So I encourage you to walk (or ride) like you are one hundred and I can assure you will see the world in a different light.
The only thing that could have made the weekend better is if my Grandma in New York were here too, but her scooter doesn't travel that far.... Happy Mother's Day Grandma! |
I'm glad that you and Kyle and the girls had such a special time with them. Too often these days, children don't get to appreciate grandparents like that. They have a unique and great perspective on life. And it's just ass special for them to spend quality time with the girls.

ReplyDeleteGod bless you and your lovely little girls. I enjoyed your note. Haven't used the hoveround much because the weather hasn't been that great. Wish I were with you and with your family too. Love you xxxxxx Grandma Hughes
PS from Aunt Sue: Just last week Gma rescued a potted gift plant by trimming it back and putting it outside on the patio in the warm sunshine days we had, so she hasn't lost her touch. The plant is thriving as are all of her other plants and when we have a night with freezing temps we bring her rescue plant in. Mom's roses continue to thrive also...
Thank you Aunt Sue, missing her! Sending love
DeleteKatie,
