sweet little doll

Well, no, the idea isn't to post just once a week. Life has been indescribably full, in new ways. Unexpected ways. But here I am again.

Hope you're having a great Memorial Day weekend. Our big treat has been to have son Mark, his wife Jill and their 15-month-old Lily here. They've been in and out for Jill's brother's graduation, but we've had some nice time together. What a precious little girl!

Lily's mastered walking since last I saw her. She's a pro, speeding around our house, stopping, turning, starting. She loves Ellie ("grr, grr"), especially her tail. The cup drawer was a favorite, which I've kept all these years for visiting toddlers.

Lily likes to take her time getting to know people, but once she warms to you, she's a loving charmer. Oh, we'll miss her sweet disposition and winsome smile when they leave.

We're on pins and needles waiting for daughter-in-love Jenny to go into labor down in Charlotte with their son, our first grandson. Our lives are filling up with grandchildren. Somehow, I don't think I'll ever have too many!
