Friday

I am sitting here tonight comfortably tired and pleasantly happy with the day I had.

I got to spend several hours with my grandsons~ it was so wonderful! The boys, their Mom and their cousin all came over and we walked to the park. The boys are growing up so fast. Hard to believe that my oldest grandson will be 5 in 3 short months. My other grandson (not in this picture) will be 5 in April and then my youngest grandson will be 4 in April. Seems like yesterday that they were just being born.

I love those boys so much... I am ever so fortunate that they are part of my life. I miss my other grandson that I don't get to see, but having these two boys around and able to do things with them... well it is such a blessing.

Things really are so good in my life right now~ there are only a couple of things that would make it better. My daughter being here would make things better~ I miss that child so much. The saving grace is that we are able to talk and text each other every day. I love the little text messages from her~ they let me know she misses me as much as I miss her.

The other thing that would be grand is to be able to have a real house again. I do like the little apartment~ it is comfortable enough for now. But I miss a house. I miss being able to let the boys RUN through grandma's house like banshee's being loud and obnoxious. I feel bad that I have to tell them "Shhhhh, grandma has neighbors". Same with my own kids. Not being able to have a dog or cat, not having a yard to play in, having stupid people doing stupid things right out our door... A house would indeed be nice.

But really over all~ no complaints.

If you are interested, take a look at my Troubled Thoughts blog to see what other things are going on ~ because along with the good stuff I have been dealing with some emotional junk too...
