Haha......bet you thought I'm expecting.
Granny is our new addition. She's going to stay with us for the winter. She had been in the hospital last week so I went down to help her and when she was in the hospital I offered for her to stay with us and she readily agreed. Whew! It will be a lot easier on all of us if she isn't home by herself. I took her to her home on Wednesday and planned on staying til Friday because we had arrangements made for someone to stay til Sunday until I could come back down to get her and move her stuff, but they fell through so she ended up coming with me on that day. On Thursday, Tevia, her boys, Risa and Brandt came down and helped her with house work and a lot of yard work. The boys were such good hard workers and kept at it and did a great job. We gave Enok a watering can and just kept filling it so it kept him busy and out of trouble. Her yard looks so nice, she was sooooo happy, not just because of all the work but for the "eeexxxcellent" company. We had a picnic on the floor in her front room and all had a good visit. Wished I had some pictures to post but I didn't take any...... so there ya go. Enok finally got to see a real train up close and personal.......I mean an actual moving on tracks horn blowing train. He was blown away! "pun intended" He stood there just shaking, scared, it was actually pretty funny. I'm sure the loud sound and immense size of the train was more than he had bargained for. He finally got over it and waved at the engineer and got an extra toot, toot! That was one of those memory building days. Thanks Tev for taking an opportunity to teach your boys about service and work. Jarek was so cute when he came into the house and announced that he just loved to do work because it was for both of his "grannies". MUWAH to all!

I am really glad we got to come and help, and we are all VERY glad granny is staying with you. Now we won't all worry so much about her being lonely. Make sure you give other people the opportunity to spend time with her too. hint hint. :)
love you mom. thanks for listening to my boo hooing tonight. I am really not so horrible all the time...
Although Ellery seems to be obsessed with trains (and firetrucks) I think she'd have about the same reaction as Ennie if she actually got to see one up close and personal like that.
Sounds like a good experience for all. Hope winter goes well for everyone!
I too am very very glad that Grannie is in good hands. Thank you for taking her in and caring for her. It is a big relief knowing she isn't by herself right now. Especially with her health condition. It was good to visit with you Aunt Monica. Even though it was a short visit. Your house is coming together very nicely :) I love you!
