12-12-21 Littlies make the world better
6:40 was early but I could hardly be upset by the grown up sounding little girl voice backed by a quickly maturing William saying Hi Nana! Can we have cereal?
Of course I had to jump up and get making the waffles I had promised. The idea of cereal went right out the door. Once again I was blown away by how much more they enjoyed the waffle and fruit than the whipped cream. We watched movies and played video games and had some good laughs. Will at on point said, “stay young Emmy!”. I asked why and he said they had puberty class and he feels sorry what is coming for her. For 10 he really impressed me with the conversation that followed and that it was all pretty disgusting for girls.
I had also awoken to a text from Danika inviting me to come meet Gwen. I wasn’t going to ask but was happy to. As it happened, I even got to hold her before the great grandparents. I didn’t stay long but I think they liked the gift of the car decal by a local artist of Baby on board and the sheep skin lined bunting bag that I bought at the Salt Spring Island Fall Fair when Rae was expecting Gene. She had given it back to me in case I wanted to pass it on. This is definitely the right season.
There is really nothing like holding a 35 hour old baby to wipe the rest of a depression away. I am grateful and know that my energy was good when she stayed relaxed in my arms and even peeped her eyes open at me.
I spent more time on outdoor and indoor decorations as I had finished my killer puzzle earlier. That was one of the hardest ones I have done that I can remember. I changed my table cloth for the season and got going on the next one of the set of 4. Late afternoon I posted on the Cranbrook Facebook group that I had toys to pay forward to someone who needed a gift for their child to give to another. I remember those extra gifts being hard to afford if I wanted Jake to have a special time. I found a good home for them and just hope they pay it forward when they can.
