Today is my birthday. I talked to all three of my children and all seven of my grandchildren. I went to lunch with my husband. It has been a good day.
Tomorrow I will travel to Lisa’s house to stay with the little boys while she and Nicole work. They don’t ask much of me and I’m happy to get some time with them. I want them to know how much I love them.
Next week I will travel to Jennifer’s house to spend some time with the girls. They come to Alabama once a year but that doesn’t seem enough for them to remember how much I love them so I travel to them.
The big boys don’t want to spend the night with us anymore but I’ve been to many sports events for them and they used to enjoy staying over night. They have outgrown that but they know I love them.
I know I will never be “the grandmother” to any of our grandchildren. Jakob and Christopher have Shirley, Sarah, Claire, and Emma have Linda, and Greyson and Briggs have Vicky. I am okay being the second string as long as they know me and know they hold special places in my heart.
Okay ~ I’m done being sappy....
Have a good sleep ~ and good night
