after a fun afternoon
and wonderful evening
spent visiting and playing
grandies are tired and tucked in
when suddenly the tears come
missing mom and dad
and after
a story, Kleenex, hugs, a visit from the cat, and a goodnight call to mom
everyone settles in for the night
including bunny
does it get any better than that?

Awh, remembering those moments well. Just yesterday my mom talked about those times when my kids when nothing could comfort them when mommy was not there.
