Well, I’m feeling better today thankfully. 🙂

I was babysitting my niece from Saturday afternoon until Monday evening and it was fun. She has grown so much (in so many ways!), but she’s a pleasure to be with, even with the middle of the night feedings and 6 am mornings. The ear piercing screams can stop however! Wow, does she get wound up fast! I think she might make a good opera singer when she gets older (she just needs some training on that high note!). Ow! On Sunday, we went to visit my mom and brightened her day a bit with a visit from her granddaughter. This is her first and she’s absolutely gramma over her. It’s nice to see her smile and get excited over something. My mom has had some unfortunate events happen in her life and it’s left her rather sad and broken. I’m amazed that she can still smile and laugh at life sometimes. She’s such an awesome person and I love her to pieces – I just wish we were closer so that I could spend more time with her. Here are a couple of pictures of Grandma and Mackenzie (Mom LOVES being called Grandma!)
