The Grandkids

They are growing fast.  They'll be three in May and are deeply ensconced in that "It's mostly about me" stage of life.  It's a hoot to listen to them, to play with them, and to watch their minds working as you interact with them.  They are definitely 21st century children.  I Phones, DVDs, and televisions are totally familiar to them.  (I was a "bad" grandma for not having "Bugs and Bubbles" on my phone!)  Goodness.

We've been on the run since Thursday.  Up to Spokane for a dental appointment and a stay-over at my step-son's home.  Out to dinner to celebrate a birthday.  Then the kids down to our house on Friday so my husband and his son could attend a funeral.  I got to enjoy the kids while they were gone.  The house is quiet now and I've had a few minutes to catch up on some email and print out some pages for a songbook for the women's retreat.

Tomorrow is Palm Sunday and we heading into Holy Week.  The liturgy I've been reading has a special section for Holy Week and I'm looking forward to a bit of a change of pace.  Though I have been enjoying the Old Testament readings lately.  Pharaoh was a stubborn one!

With a somewhat calm week ahead (two physical therapy appointments, and only one meeting so far) I'm hoping to get back on a schedule of exercise, reading, and writing.  We'll see what happens as
life goes on!
