My Happy Place

Usually, once a week, I am blessed to spend the whole day with two of our grandchildren

while their mommy and daddy work. It is truly the highlight of my week! 

I don't get much done, but I treasure my time with them. 

As I've written here many times before, 

I'm so thankful for the "do-overs" you get as a grandparent.

Why did I not spend more time just playing with my children

instead of cleaning the house and doing the laundry? 

I should have taken more pictures from today...

I need to remember I've started writing in my blog again.

You would have seen a living room with toys sprawled out everywhere

and a trail that led to the kitchen...hahaha - GOOD TIMES!

Today, Papa was able to come home early and work on a project with Ethan.

Ethan LOVES his Papa! 

We love all our grandchildren, and we adore our granddaughters, 

but it is fun to have another boy around again.
It really takes us back to the years we raised our boys, although those years are a blur to us now.

The simple fact is, we were so busy trying to make a living as we were raising them, 

we didn't get to enjoy the moments as much as we would have liked.

Bringing us back to the present, to today -

here is Papa and Ethan working on that project

Today was a beautiful day! 

OH! I almost forgot -

TONIGHT, just a short time ago

Our founders Bella and Chrissy gave the designers a sneak peek 

at two new charms coming out this summer.

Want to see?

Do you LOVE it? I DO! Cotton Candy is one of my favorite things in the WORLD!!!

Yes, today was a WONDERFUL day!!!
