I came around the corner to find a blanket lump on the couch. Giggles came from underneath. It was Kate and Grandma Great, huddled beneath the throw, playing a game and loving their time together.
I often think back to the way Grandma was when I was a girl: energetic, busy, fun. She's a lot slower now. Her mind isn't as sharp and her energy isn't as high. But, one thing that hasn't changed is the way she is quick to laugh and the way she enjoys children. My kids have loved having their Grandma Great visit this week. They have played games and cuddled and made each other laugh. Davis learned to say 'Grandma Great.' Kate and Grandma had a 'sleepover' in her room. Dallin gave her a piano concert.
The blessing of knowing and loving their great grandmother is priceless to me. Thank you, Dad and Mom, for coming to visit and for bringing her along. We miss you, all three!

So sweet! I am sure these memories will be treasured by your children as much as they are treasured by you.
I love how you describe everything so well. Sounds like she is a "great" grandma great.
Hope you are getting all moved in and settled into your beautiful new house.
Oh, and did they release Bishop Drollinger after you guys moved? I have been wondering if the bishopbric changed. It would be fun to know what happened in our home ward away from home ward.
Thanks for your hospitality in your amazing home! xoxoxo
