Summer is quickly coming to an end . . . one of the signs is the crab apple tree dropping it’s ripe bounty everywhere. My Great Nephew actually likes eating the little sour bites . . . they aren’t much bigger than a big cherry. I found him “snacking” under the crab apple tree and so I had to snap a picture with him. He’s such a sweet little soul with an amazing imagination and sensitive heart. I love spending time with him . . . as I love spending time with my Grand-kids and impacting them in a way that they will always associate their Grandma with love, respect, and acceptance.
“Children’s talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.” Maya Angelou
We were at breakfast this morning in a favorite local restaurant. She was a bit cranky while we waited for our food, so out came the iPhone with her beloved Bubble Guppies. When I snapped this photo, I had to distract her and this is the “stare” that I got . . . how DARE I interrupt her precious show!
She’s a very resilient child who’s Mommy allows her to fall down and get back up on her own, and figure out solutions to problems rather than jumping in and solving them for her. At age 20 months she’s already got quite the dialogue, and has no trouble communicating what she is thinking, feeling, or wanting. I’m so excited to be a part of the journey of her life.
