This day has been so wonderful for us. It started out a little hairy because we had mail that really needed attention, so we left Hobart about an hour later than we wanted. It was good that we came home and got to that mail, though. (Just tax issues over our business; nothing all that hairy, just details that needed to be addressed and we did it.)
Once we got to OKC, though, and go to the Oglesby house it was so wonderful. We had stopped and brought sandwiches for lunch and they eat anything, so that made it fun. Then getting to hold Raynie was so special. I never can understand how we have the capacity to love yet another child! It's such a lesson to me in God's love. I think that's how He wants us to love everyone, not just our grandkids. I hope I can grow to be that kind of person because it sure feels good.
All the kids are amazing. Sadie cleans the sink and loads the dishwasher. Gabe takes out the trash, Nate clears the dishes and cleans the table and totes the laundry up and down the stairs and manages the laundry downstairs. Grace folds and delivers laundry. Mason . . . I'm not sure what Mason's job is, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't do it until he's been told a million times. Maybe his job is to wash his hands and stay out of trouble because that seems to be the instructions he's getting a lot. He's a case and we'll figure out his job. They all are special. They all love the baby, and they are all good to each other. They are good eaters and they give great hugs and kisses. They never seem to be tired of seeing Grammy and Poppy, so it's always good to be in their presence.
Trish seems to be doing really well, but she's really tired. We had a chance for me to trim her hair tonight. She just needed the dead ends off, so we got that done. Tomorrow we're going early in the morning so that she can get a good soaking bath before we go run some errands. We are staying at a motel nearby because taking me anywhere is like taking a baby there is so much to take. We didn't need to be dragging in more stuff to their house. We're close, so we can go if she needs us, but they've got it all under control.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow. It's good to have all this great activity and love to fill our time waiting for the appointment with the doctors on Thursday. God is so smart! I thank Him for being in control. I thank you for caring enough to read our details and Him for you.
