Last week, we were lucky enough to have a visit from Olivia's great-grandma Geri ("GG") and great-aunt Shelly. Speaking as a kid that grew up with really only my immediate family, it was pretty special for her to see these extended relatives! They came bearing gifts, including a sweet doll wearing a pillowcase crocheted by Olivia great, great, great grandmother. (Don't worry...the responsibility that comes with that gift is not lost on me!) In addition, they brought Olivia a new purse filled with her very own phone and lipstick (chapstick). We all laughed that the thing Olivia seemed to like best was the
tape that sweet Aunt Shelly used to decorate the chapstick!
Olivia showed them every toy we had
Took her babies to HEB and then came back with "food" for everyone, while singing a rousing version of "Do You Know The Muffin Man?"
Forced everyone to make a "leg tunnel" for the weebles' bus to go under
And read them lots of books
Of course, we had to have a little snack and some ice cream
It was such a wonderful visit, and once again I am reminded of the many people - near and far - who love my little girl! Pretty lucky....
