Green Smiley Monday

Hi everyone,
Just a quick hello & off to work. I am grateful today for a visit from the beautiful De (Number 9 on DS). She was visiting in the area and we got together on Saturday morning. Ken joined us for breakfast and is now one of De's biggest fans. It was such a joy to see De, share a bit and get a real hug! :)
Yesterday I had Iysabella all day while Christina worked. She is so precious and just loves coming to Grammy & Grampy's house. I had bought her a little play stove and sink to keep at my house so we "cooked" together. She is very smart and is engaging in representative play already at only 11 months old. (well I think she is a genius of course, lol).
I wish everyone a good week.
Love and peace, Linda

I believe De (Number9) has closed her DS account. She is definitely a special lady and I\'m so glad I had the opportunity to spend an afternoon with her in my home. I hope to see her back with us here one day soon. She is sorely missed.

Enjoy the cooking and baking with precious Iysabella. I am thinking of Kala\'s kitchen which was set up in our family room for a long time. Oh the hours of fun we had! There was also one of those playskool slides in the family room, and lots of ride on trains, fire trucks, and hot wheels, so we had lots of indoor fun! Thanks for sharing and for bringing fun memories to mind for me.

I\'m so happy that you were able to connect with De and then have that precious time with Iysabella. I too remember my daughter\'s Fisher/Price kitchen set up in our family room. One of the cutest things that she did was cut the cord on the play telephone because she wanted a cordless phone like I had lol Of course, now they come with so many bells and whistles! What powerful healers these little ones are. :)

Hoping your week is going well and sending my love!

Linda, I am glad that Ken has also been De-lighted with De\'s visit! I am sure wherever De goes, warmth and sunshine follow in one\'s heart.
How nice of you to gift Iysabella with that play kitchen set!...oh how I wanted one of those when I was little! Some of my fondest childhood memories are of an \"aunt\" (in actuality my Uncle\'s girlfriend!) that always brought gifts, usually toys, for my sister and I. Her kindness meant so much to me and really impacted me. I look forward to seeing her in Heaven someday and telling her how special she was and is to me...
You are making such wonderful memories of love with your little angel Iysabella...I\'d love to see a picture of her playing Suzy Homemaker! :-)

I can relate to taking care of little ones. Jossie my youngest granddaughter is 12 months old and when I watch her with all the bending my back aches for days, but it\'s worth it. We are blessed to have grandchildren Linda. Sending love, Terry
