Thursday already! It certainly doesn’t take long for the week to disappear. And yesterday flew by while two of our grandchildren visited. We picked up Karlee and Kyle around 8 in the morning and took them home. It was raining heavily at the time so there weren’t any outside play activities available. Kyle and I found some stuff to do in the garage for awhile and Karlee colored with her new gel pens. Also during this time, the cat took a mental beating as the kids pursued her in their vain attempts to hold and pet her. She’s a good natured cat, so no injuries resulted. Soon it was lunch time and shortly after that, a wrestling time in the front room. The best time came when I, seated on my comfortable chaise, had two children and a cat for company in that spacious chair. We practiced being “Quiet” for a few minutes and it was great. I even got in a real catnap. Of course it didn’t last very long; they are 5 and 7 after all! And then the cat suddenly decided that beneath the hutch looked like a more promising place to nap. Day over!
Next week promises more of the same…sort of. The twins, aged 2 years and 10 months, are coming to visit for a week. They are not identical twins, and even if they were, they have wildly divergent personalities, making for an interesting week ahead of us. But I have a feeling that I will get another chance to share the chaise with grandkids and cat and that’s always nice.
