our grandbabies are growing up so quickly. just a few weeks ago they were all together in georgia, just enjoying one another’s company. they went swimming and shopping and to a baseball game. i think their favorite part there was the cow.
they also went to see the movie cars 2. it was the first movie theater experience for them. reuben did well (he is 4 1/2). william (4) and elleigh (3 1/2) were a little young. but i think they had fun just being together. and the grown-ups loved it! i sent them each a cars tee shirt to wear.
jackson, at 15 months, had to stay home.
here they are earlier this summer, getting ready for the heat. i do so wish i lived closed!
i spent some time downstairs with terry’s mom this morning. as her body is winding down she hates feeling so tired and achy. today is especially bad. i just wish there was something we could do for her. she has her pain meds and they help but they do just make her even more tired. as she approaches the end of her time here with us i wish it could be easier. she loves the Lord and is looking forward to being with Him in heavenly places. at the same time, i think it must be a bit frightening to think about leaving the familiar for the unknown. even so, come, Lord Jesus, and comfort this saint.
