Atlanta 2011

How blessed I feel.  I finally had the opportunity to spend a few days at my oldest daughters home.  I got to see those blessed little creatures that come in all ages and sizes they call grandkids.  I call them blessings.  And actually had a chance to spend some time with each of them hearing about them and their world.  Wow - I've loved it.

I got to attend / hear their recital (and heard them practice for it which I liked as much as the recital).  They are so good.  I've known for a long time how good Stephen is - but Sarah has blown me away too.  I didn't even know she was doing piano until they posted a video of her on facebook about a year ago.  woah.  I was shocked.  So it was a blessing to see/hear all of them.  Sarah had a solo, Stephen had one, and then Sarah, Stephen, Timmy and Joshua did one together.  I was so proud of them.

I caused one bad thing, tho.  Michelle (my daughter) had been telling me how Michael (her oldest) had been searching and searching for a job.  So, I butted in in an effort to help him and caused him to think I was criticizing him.  All I was trying to do was help.  So much for butting in.

I enjoyed traveling - and even enjoyed traveling by myself.  I liked the quietness of my thoughts.  I liked stopping where/when I wanted without feeling like I was inconveniencing anyone.  I loved looking at the flowers / trees / buildings - everything.  Wrong turn?  It don't bother me unless I'm on a deadline - time master I have to meet.  I love being able to commune with the Lord on his and my time.

After the recital, their church had an awesome Christmas play that I got to see.  And again - my babies were a part of it - and Timbo had a bit of a singing solo and did soooo well.  wow - his voice is getting so deep.  He is such a cutie..  They all did so well.  Hannah (who was an angel in the pagent) decided to 'lay down' on stage and prop her head in her hands.  When she was told to 'sit' - she said 'Angels don't sit - they fly'.   She is a doll.  And Jessica was the perfect angel and did her part just right.  Joshua was the best shepherd I've ever seen - and Mary and Joseph (aka Timbo and Sarah) were great.  

After that, I spent another day or so and then came home to prepare for them coming down and to see my daughter down here.  I missed her and her girls while I was gone.  Her girls are so neat and I miss them so when I don't see them.

Home again, home again.  My 4 legged babies were sooooo glad I was home.  I worry about them when I leave them behind, but Joey (my son) takes care of them for me.  He's just not 'momma' to them, lol.  They are still hanging close to me.
