An awesome visit!

This is my beautiful Grandma Chesley. I feel quite privileged to have had the opportunity to have her stay with us. She has a sister who lives here in the Phoenix area, and came to stay with her for a few weeks. Before grandma went home, she was able to stay with me for a couple of days. It was truly a treat. She was a wonderful guest. Not enough trouble. I was prepared to really pamper her, but she just connected with my kids and with me. How many kids get to really connect with their great-grandparents? Austin, I must say, was a total gentleman. I was so proud of him. He treated her with such respect. She even helped him practice the piano. She was, after all, my piano teacher when I was young. I told her she was a great teacher, I was a poor student. Her, taking the time to teach me, was awesome, and I love her for it.

 

 She also had quite the connection with Ty. I think he could see his own grandma in her, and absolutely loved her. She really showed us she has some giddy-up left in her. She pushed him on the swing, and went to watch Ty and Lauren at their tumbling class. She slept with Maddi, and had a good talk with her too. I loved it!

This is her sister, Marion. Adorable, right? She is an awesome lady too!   Thank you, grandma, for coming to stay. And a HUGE thank you for giving me my mom!!!  My mom is the most wonderful woman on the planet.  No lie. She is. And, I am indebted to you for having her!

I hope I inherited some of her genes. She is 85 and, no lie, I have more wrinkles than she does!! She is amazing. I hope she knows how much we enjoyed having her around!

LOVE YOU!!
