my life has been so full these last few months! a trip to california, spending time with all the grandkids and loving this season of my life!
i haven't been this happy in a long time!
during my trip to cali i had a chance to meet with some dear friends. it's kind of weird how relationships can grow on social media! school mates from high school i barely new back then have become friends i value and respect! we had another evening of music, wine, good food and conversation, just as wonderful as the time we had last year! real people talking about real life!
spending time with my family was awesome! i got to watch my sister in action as she prepared the yard for a wedding! can we just say "tree lights"? we spent more time together this visit then we have in the past and seemed to get closer with each conversation. my nephew austin, has turned into a wonderful young man. we had time together one on one and boy can he make me laugh! i am so proud of him, he will finish nursing school this year! des, tiff, haley and the little ones added joy to the trip. dad was dad, and i am still in awe of my mom! she is a strong woman, she just doesn't know it!
i have been here with sasha, bobbie and the kids for over a year now. it is going great and i love being here with them. caroline and abram are two fireballs! they are loud and crazy, kind of like their grandma! abram still can't say grandma, so he calls me memaw! we will keep working on it! it is my favorite title! caroline lost her first tooth this week, she was so excited, she came downstairs and woke me up to show me!
misty and jeremy are busy with work and sweet elliott! i try to spend as much time as i can with him! oh how he makes my heart melt! he has more energy than any kid i know! he can already carry a conversation with me, and has the sweetest voice when he calls me grandma!
now, about my anticipation! sweet baby girl will be here anytime now! i can already imagine holding her in my arms! that sweet, soft smell that only a baby has! she will be my last grandchild, and i can hardly wait to meet her. her middle name will be jane, after me! my heart melted when they told me. i will see you soon, my sweet baby jane!
god has been so good to me and i am so grateful! my new found freedom is a wonderful way to live life!
