Family

I love spending time with my family. I am so very lucky that my children are close and are willing to share their time with me. Friday is usually family night where I get together with Tom and his wife, Missy and her husband, and wonderful grandbaby Serif. That is always enjoyable. Right after Patrick died, Tom and his wife drifted away and we saw very little of them. It's nice that they now include us in their lives again.

Missy has me over on Tuesday so we can watch Gilmore Girls. She feeds me and everything. I'm not sure how much I watch the show compared to watching Serif. I am so crazy about that little girl.

Then there is our Sunday's where we do our shopping and errands. We also try to go to church at least every other Sunday.

So you see I am included in my children's lives a lot. Plus the fact that I have a tendency to need a couple of visits for hugs and kisses from Serif during the week. She is changing so fast that every day is something new. I know I shouldn't spend so much time over there and I'm always afraid that I will wear out my welcome but...did I mention...that I'm crazy about that little girl?

I love being a grandmother. Right now Serif is very into her parents and I'm thrilled about that. Missy and Terry are such fabulous parents. But she's always happy to see her Grammy. She will give me the sweetest little smile when she sees me. She has already learned how to make my heart melt. I'm such a push over for her. That's part of the fun of being a grandmother.

Serif is now pulling up and furniture walking. I can't believe how big she is getting. It won't be long before she's walking. Soon she'll be coming over to my house to spend the night. That is going to be so much fun. I definitely have to get more toys at my house. Guess I know where the tax refund it is going.
