Granma & DadDad

Last week my Parents drove from the Mid-West to come visit me......well it was more like they came to visit their grandchild! LOL. We had such a great time. Nothing too extravagant. Just traveled to close by places and sat around the house. Chatting, sleeping, and eating....now that's the life!
I was so happy to have them here. I don't know if you get like this....but I wanted everything perfect! Of course it never ends up being that way.  Oh well.....its our time together that counts!
Later I asked myself, why did I want, or need this perfection? My conclusion is...I just want my Mom and Dad to see I have grown up. That my life (far from magical) is actually turning out pretty good. That all those things they taught me (even the ones I didn't want to hear) have actually come in handy.
I am so very blessed today because of my parents. They have lived and worked for God for many years. There isn't a day that goes by that I know my Mom has prayed for me. I know I make it because of those prayers. These are treasures that mean more than anything. And can I say what AWESOME Grandparents they are!!
 

Love this one of my Mom and the Mister


Every morning, the Little Man, would run into my parents room and ask his "DadDad" to make the "ChooChoo's". So then you would see my Dad rebuilding a new track each day. Ever so faithfully, just to make his grandson happy. Love my Daddy!! My Mom was always sneaking chocolate to him. I have had a hard time reteaching him that chocolate is NOT breakfast, lunch, or dinner. LOL

If you are lucky to have parents like mine...then your life will always be rich!
