Loves Her Granpa


Abby just loves Granpa. Though we only get to see him once a year or so, she asks about him quite a bit. On his last day here last weekend, she was quite out of sorts, acting unusually mellow and quiet. She was just clinging to Granpa and didn't want to be parted from him. She fell asleep on the way to the airport, and she woke up briefly when we stopped and dropped my dad off. He kissed and hugged her, and she said good-bye to him. But an hour or so later as we were eating dinner, she suddenly realized he was gone and asked, "Where's Granpa?" We reminded her that we had taken him to the airport and he was on his way home, she had no memory of saying good-bye and was devastated that she didn't get to give him a hug good-bye.

Ahhh, poor Abby. Well hopefully everything will still work out for you and the kids to come down in September and she'll get to see lots of Granpa.
