Blog Memory for the Twins

I just heard you were coming. Like a Christmas treat in summer. When first I heard it was August 5, 2006. That’s right! Way before your coming. You were hailed with a gift for your grandma and grandpa of a little pink and blue bib. I thought then the last week before your announcement that you were coming. I kept my thoughts with a silent smile laughing a sly giggle all the way to see the family that day. We were so excited and happy! We waited for you and your spirit for a very long time. Last night I could not sleep. And I thought of the many times I’ll have to share with you. I feel full in hopes of sharing my days with you. I’ve decided to write to you now so you would be sure that you will get to know about your grandma and grandpa.

I will be making you a place here in our home so you’ll always know your welcome and at home. You’ll have a room with bright colors of yellow and sunlight for the grandest room in our home. Making plans for us to grow up together. I’ll be telling you in this journal about your grandma and grandpa. So much is new so today is just a small introduction. These will be your first words with your grand folks in the desert.

We do not feel old and we feel very much alive. We just bought a yellow sports car last week. We plan to take many road trips to see the sights of the country. We also work very hard and long hours. We’re 53 right now and it’s the middle of summer. We won’t do much in the summer heat but we will start our home decorating this fall.

Next week we’ll be going to visit your Mom and Dad to hear your first concert. Los Lonley Boys. I have planed on bringing with me a gift for your parents and a crochet blanket for you.
You will find me here writing from time to time. When I’m happy, moody, or sad and I’ll bring to you stories of us and our lives of future and past. I’m so glad your coming!
