We have had the five Omaha grandkids here for a few short days. They arrived on Wednesday rather late, and we got to play with them on Thursday and Friday. They depart for South Texas today. So it was a short if busy visit. We visited Fredericksburg yesterday, and all enjoyed shopping. Grandad had given each $5 to spend since he had learned that Sarah only had 21 cents to spend, and that just would not do. Sarah was the first to get rid of her $5, but the others managed to shop and enjoy the whole experience. Finally, lunch at a brew pub and a chance to try out the local version of good German food.
It wasn't the shopping, it was the hugs that make our days. Sarah gives great hugs as do all of the grand kids. James is growing tall and thinks he should shake your hand, but HW2 will not let him get away with that. Hugs are the order of the day, and it is a joy to watch them enjoy their busy lives. We will miss them when they head South but may get to see them briefly when they return North on their way back to Omaha.
One of the pleasant things about aging is the possibility of grandchildren. We are fortunate to have 13 and now one great grandchild, in addition. We love them all and look forward to visits and treasure our moments together. Happy travels.
