Time Flies

It's funny how time can sometimes go by really slow and other times really fast? Why is that? Because you're having fun? or too busy and not watching your clocks? I know that I have not been paying attention to the clock at all in the sense of what I have to do in my 'real' world. I have been only concentrating on what Grace wants to eat, why she's not drinking here milk, and when she should go down for a nap or get up from one! Anything I thought was important or a 'must be done' scenario has long ago fallen off into oblivion!

I did have to go into work this afternoon for four hours. That was unfortunate in some ways as our kids just got back from their Mexico holiday late last night and finally made it to our house with all their luggage and their two boys (who were staying at the other grandparents place) by about 11 a.m.  That gave us (me) time to have a short visit, a coffee and a hug and hello before I took off to work. Grace and Alicia were happy to see their mom and dad too. A week can seem a lot longer to a 1 year old and an 8 year old!

Tonite they were headed out to a birthday party so John and I were alone so opted for a supper 'out' tonite! It was nice to just sit. We love having the kids, but they do take 'something' out of you! That being said, I wouldn't give it up for nothing!!

Tomorrow will be a day to visit with everyone and inbetween the visits will be grocery shopping, naps, etc, etc. It will be a gradual close this week to a great 2 week visit. I think they are heading back to Vancouver on Sat morning.

Guess that leaves us time for a few more memory making days.
