So many things to be thankful for yesterday (in addition to L & K's big news.)
Thankful for Face Time phone calls that allowed us to share the day with the rest of the family and catch their surprise at the news. Not quite as good as being them being with us, but so much better than just a phone call.
Thankful for the everyday experiences I am allowed to witness in my grandchildren's lives. Yesterday it was watching the faces of two boys light up with pride and joy at riding their two-wheelers without training wheels. And that their great grandmother witnessed it too was icing on the cake. Being there for the big thing is important but what a joy to see the small things.
Thankful for the quiet time listening to the boys make "the world's biggest mud pie" in their fort. Thankful for the parents of those two boys who are great parents for two boys!
Thankful to be available to listen to parenting questions, even if I don't have the answers and anguish with them about what to do in certain situations. The open relationship that allows this is a special blessing.
