MY WEEKEND WITH EMERSON

Grandmother- grandchild relationships are
simple, Grandma's are short on criticism
and long on love.

~ Unknown


 




 
This has been a weekend of
waking way before the sun
even thinks about rising,
lots of painting, paper,
cutting and tape...miles
of tape. Reading books
while cuddling on the sofa,
drinking hot cocoa with
little marshmallows, collecting
leaves, twirling, long walks
with new walking sticks,
singing at the top of our lungs,
making mud cakes for fairies,
watching this while sharing
a large bowl of popcorn,
and most of all ....lots of love,
laughter and the best hugs.
It went by too quickly.

  6. You know - I posted a photo of my grandparents - whom I truly adored and they had such a positive influence on my life - even now they are long gone. Just reading your post makes me think of them and I can see what a precious relationship you both have with each other. Xxx

  7. It appears that your weekend was full of love and life and I bet you are exhausted but in a very good way. She has changed so much since the last posting, I can see a bit of you in her face and I love how she twirls about! So glad you had this weekend with her. I loved my grandma and remember all of the fun we shared while I grew up :)
