I was needed at my daughter's
opportunity for some Finn and grandma time
Most of the time it rained and was chilly
...opportunity for rainboots and an umbrella
This is the sweetest boy on earth
and he makes his Grandma
verklempt
as he looks out the window
at his tree....Mr.Ebbersberger
....it's a long story...but that is the tree's name
and we hug it everytime we are together
...seems his parents aren't into the spirit of this relationship
hmph
After a long day at preschool, lunch and a little playing
he crashes....
and I just watch him
a miracle
as all children are
He took a bath too this afternoon
used his papa's sage and sandlewood soap
so he can smell like his Papa
What a beautiful story! Took me back to my time with my grandmother on the farm...such perfect memories, and you are creating the same for him!
ReplyDeletegrandma on the farm...sigh
DeleteMy time to be a grandma will come, but not yet. This post has been a most lovely reminder of how it might be. What a blessing your little Finn is, Suz. (Of course I LOVE his rain poncho!) xo
ReplyDeleteoh he was in full Batman mode
Deletethat bird nesting clump ball is a cool idea....
ReplyDeleteand sounds like you have been having some fun...smiles...
its cool to wear two different boots...
Your grandson, Finn, what a handsome and inquisitive treasure. You have been blessed, along with Mr. Ebersberger, of course. Isn't it wonderful to have that special contact, special memories you are instilling. He will follow in your footsteps too.

DeleteWhat a fun way to spend a day--I'm sure next week can't get here soon enough!!
ReplyDeletemy kitties aren't looking forward to next week
DeleteBut you are right ..it was fun
What an adorable grandson! He must bring you a lot of joy. I love the batman outfit. When our boys were little my wife made them a cape and they used to run up and down, first shouting "Up, up, and away!", and then "Down, down, I'm coming back!" They also had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costumes, if you can remember those. Now they are in their twenties and tower over me. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteoh sigh indeed...and yes I remember the turtles
DeleteHow sweeet childhood can be
and what memories we get to hold in our beings too
A tree with a name, I find that charming! What a beautiful boy, and time spent with you...priceless.
ReplyDeleteNice choice on the shoes Mr. Finn, can't go wrong with red ;)
hee hee...I just knew you would approve
DeleteOh boy is he a chatterbox
