Red Jeep Club
Sunday morning (or afternoon by now) and getting ready to go to my favorite guy's birthday party. Yes, R is having a Monster Truck party! Just got off the phone with SM and he's driving her just slightly crazy wanting to know if it's time to go yet. He's ready....ready for playing with his friends, and ready for cake and ice cream, and ready for pizza, but most of all he's ready for his favorite thing in the whole world...presents! The joy and excitement in his eyes will be tremendous. Yes, I'll be helping SM & K with the kids and the food and the spills, but I'll mainly be watching my grandson. Watching as another year has gone by and he's growing up faster than any of us want him to. Watching all the emotions exploding out of him...the giggles and laughter and surprise and happiness. And I know that I'll be able to look over at D and see the quiet love she has for her little brother. She loves the little guy so much and she's so proud of each and every one of his accoplishments...counting, his alphabet, etc. And she glows and blushes when you ask her if she helped R learn something. The love between the two of them is so wonderful and so heart-warming. Sure, there's the normal sibling spats, but it's part of growing up. SM & K, you're doing such a great job, you're such incredible parents...thank you for my grandchildren. Ok, enough of the mushy stuff...got to get ready for MONSTER TRUCK PARTY!
