"I missed you grandma"
Those are beautiful words coming from the soft high pitched voice of a 2 year old child. In all the difficulties we face with the kids moving in, those moments with those sweet little words can really touch your heart. As a grandma, I have to admit to melting in a puddle at his feet. Or when little M tenderly held my cheeks in her 2 little hands to gently kiss me on the lips as I came up the basement stairs. But most amazing is to see K's eyes light up and a grin spread across her face when I walk in the door after work. Wow. Add moments like that up and you have yourself a great day on earth.
Do you think it had anything to do with the cheesecake I brought home to share from the Cheesecake Factory? I'm kidding. Those kids wouldn't care if I was empty handed. Now M might be a different story. He loved his Chocolate Coconut "something" Cheesecake which I picked because it is the waitresses favorite.
I just had a good laugh with co-worker. Tears were rolling for both of us as she related a funny story. More moments to cherish. A good belly laugh can do great things for the mood.
I feel very positive and full of love this morning. Now to carry that throughout my day.
