The time came to say goodbye to our son and daughter-in-love and two beautiful grandchildren.
They were here and enjoyed decorating the Christmas tree.
They were here and enjoyed rolling out and cutting out and decorating gingerbread cookies.
They were here and enjoyed decorating graham cracker houses.
They were here and enjoyed playing in the snow and building a snow fort.
They were here bringing much joy.
Now the cookies have all been eaten.
The tree trimmings have all been put away.
We have been “charged” to take care of the snow fort as they head back to their home.
But the wonderful decorated houses will remain on our dining room table to remind us of the fabulous time we had together.
It was hard to say goodbye.
So grateful for our time together.
