Another Good E & A Fix

After being discharged from the Cleveland Clinic this weekend, Mom and Dad stopped in Greenville to see us on Sunday night on their way home. It had been a while since their last "E & A fix", and they needed a booster shot, so to speak.

The girls were excited to see Grammy and Pappy, too. We let them stay up a little later on Sunday night to see them when they arrived. We all went to bed shortly after that and woke up on Monday morning to some good breakfast and family time.

Brandon had to go into the office around lunch, but the rest of us stayed home and enjoyed each other's company immensely. It is interesting to see how much we cherish each minute now. Some of them are filled with joy, some sadness...it's all a part of the process, I guess. We are past the wierdness of spontaneous tears...they seem to come and go throughout the day. But, for the most part, we're just having fun watching Ella and Allie be awesome kids.

Allie has always had eyes for her Grammy. Mom says she looks at her like she sees her soul or something. It's fun to watch them stare at each other. Allie has gotten to be quite active now, though, so she'll grab for Mom's oxygen mask or at her Flolan tubes, so I have to be close by to make sure things stay where they should...supervised visits!

They left on Tuesday morning, and headed to Columbia. It had been a week since they'd been home and seen their kitties, who I'm sure, were very glad to have them back.

If all goes as planned and Mom's up to it, I'm hosting Thanksgiving at my house and both families will be here to celebrate.

We have much to be thankful for.
