Grand Girl


Sunday school was great. "Friday and I served as greeters before church and then we all had a moment when we sang three part harmony during "O Holy Night."

"Friday" had to work after church and so the Grand Girl and I had the afternoon to ourselves. We had chicken tenders along the river at our favorite picnic table, went down to inventory the trees, leaves, and mud at the boat dock, then came home for long naps. Afterward we watched my favorite movie, Disney's "Shipwrecked" while eating oat snacks and almonds. It just does not get much better than that!

Last week I found a box with a number of Martha Miniature dresses my mother bought soon after she and Daddy adopted me at three and a half years of age. To my delight when I tried some of them on the GG half a dozen of them fit! I'm putting a picture of my mother and me in the red dress I wore the day my Mother's Sunday School friends gave her a shower to celebrate her new daughter. I've always loved this picture, but today was the best thing so far; when the GG saw it she exclaimed, "Nana! That's me!" Funny thing was ... it wasn't ... it was Nana ... at her age.

When "Friday" came home we all went to their house, piled up on her bed, drank hot tea, ate cheese, mile-of-meat (summer sausage) and watched that Christmas movie where Santa tells the little boy he will shoot his eye out with the BB Gun he wants. It's been a great Lord's day.

Blessings,
Seriously
