On Tuesday, Jane suggested coffee so we loaded up in the car and headed out for coffee...then, Emma and I walked home. Later, Emma and I walked to meet Betty for lunch...

Emma loves her books which thrills her Nana. Simon and Mazie love books and stories. When our girls were little, they loved books.

The night before Betsy turned 6, she told me she was so excited for her birthday. When questioned about what she was excited about...party? presents? new age? Nope, she was going to get her own library card!!!!!

When Jane was little, we would scoured her room for 2 types of contraband...light and books. We would have to empty the room of everything or she would read for hours!!! And she was very creative in hiding her...supplies. We even had to remove her nightlight!

We love our sons-in-law because of the richness that they bring to our family. One of the blessings is the relationship that we have with Jon's parents. God has given us a special bond and what a privilege that we share children and grandchildren too.

Emma was pretty sleepy on Tuesday. She took lots of little cat naps. After one nap, we were getting ready to walk to pick up Jane after her hair appointment. We were both hot and her little pool was set up still so instead of popping into the shower...I put her swimsuit on and my suit on and off we went to the pool...Unfortunately, the sun was not giving us a break so after about 15 minutes in the pool, I explained that the sun is not good for little girls...picked her up and headed up to change clothes. Oh my...our little girl was NOT happy about leaving the pool. She cried and let me know that this was NOT her plan!!!

We waited for Andy to come home and off we went to walk to pick up Jane. She turns 30 in a few days (Andy turned 30 in May) and she now looks like one hot Mama! Happy Birthday Jane! We celebrated their birthdays and Emma and I talked about our big day!!! How very fun to spend the day in Fargo with the McCoys.
