I Am Blessed

The last few days have been very busy. Monday, Lis, Dave and I went to John`s Hopkins to take Emma back for a post surgery check-up. I watched Sierra in the waiting room while Lis and David took Emma into the office Sierra literally entertained the whole waiting room. She talked the entire time. I made up a story about her and she filled in the blanks. She calls herself Erra Banks and she has blue eyes like mommy and not orange eyes like daddy, actually she has green eyes. She told me her SS story was about a king who marched' "like this" and she proceeds to march in long strides, and who also cried and was sad, and when I asked why, she hesitated, rolled her eyes and said,"because he has eyes like mommy". I could go on and on because we must have sat there waiting for 1-1/2 hrs. We finally went for a walk and when Emma came out and they saw each other I should have had my camera because they ran to each other and hugged each other like they had been separated for months.
We then went to lunch and Em and Si sat in a booth like big girls. We stopped at the Outlets and after about 1/2 hr. of shopping, it was evident that they were tired and ready for a nap. We decided to try one more store to buy the girls new shoes and belive me that was one store too many. We managed to get them a pair of shoes but it was a challenge. The best thing about grandkids is when we got to my house, they cried because I was leaving them, but wait, that isn`t the best part, you see I went in and sat down and felt blessed for being with them. Lis took them home promising herself she would never take them shopping again. You just gotta love grandkids.
