I've been home from El Paso for four days now. I knew I would feel kind of "down" on my return. It's much more fun to anticipate a trip, all of the activities, and being reunited with much-missed grandchildren ~ but then I have to come home, and sometimes the sadness goes pretty deep.
So when it was arranged for Kelly, Dylan, Brendan and Shane to come over for dinner tonight, I was very happy!
How can my heart be sad when my little fellow is over to play?
Two weeks ago when he came over to play, I had forgotten about some of the toys back in the playroom that I had gotten for him. But tonight, I had them out and ready for him! He liked all of them very much. He has the sweetest smile and he enjoys my camera so much. There will come a day when he most likely will NOT want his picture taken ... so I am taking every advantage while I have it!
We enjoyed a yummy dinner together, played for a little bit, and then everyone went home. I've been editing pictures tonight, looking back on my trip to El Paso with a heavy heart ... but a little lighter after tonight's visit.

Carol: He is just the sweetest little guy. And he is so excited about life and all his accomplishments so it's good he' lifting your spirits.
Thanks, Judy! Brendan is a real JOY.
Perhaps in about 8 months, all of the grandchildren will be within reach ... what a relief it will be to have them closer. This 1600 mile distance between us has gotten really really ... sad.
