After a two week long visit, my mom headed back to North Dakota this morning. It was such a great trip, filled with books, walks, songs, and time spent exploring outside. Grandma came with us to our Friday morning EI playgroup two weeks in a row, so she got to learn & help reinforce a lot of the songs and signs we've been working on. We started eating meals at the dining room table when she arrived, so she helped us figure out that transition as well. She was the bathtime entertainment everyday, which gave us a chance to do other stuff around the house while the kids were "contained". Most importantly, Derek & I had FOUR NIGHTS OUT while she was here! That time out together reminds me that there is an US outside of THEM. It makes us more human and it allows us to be better parents.
Bye bye, Grandma,
Bye bye, Grandma,
Bye bye, Grandma-
It's sad to say goodbye...
When I returned from the airport this morning, Zoe stood in front of the baby gate in the guest room door, looked around, and started to cry. She went into the nursery, found the photo album with a picture of my mom in it, pointed at the picture, and then laid down on the floor with the picture next to her face :-(
Thanks so much for all of your help. We miss you already and we can't wait until you come back in October! In the meantime, we'll see you on skype!!!!!
Love,
All of Us
