I've had a busy and lovely time with my granddaughter and then step-grandsons and daughter and son-in-law. I don't regret a thing that came out of my mouth. I listened a lot and learned more about their lives. My observation is that they are happy and blessed, despite complicated lives and schedules and challenges. I'm relieved.
That old chestnut "Go with the flow" really has legs. I didn't worry about what activities we did, I was simply grateful to be with them and notice the little things. I feel so bonded with my granddaughter and when I left she wouldn't let me go, and I felt the same. In the best of worlds, I would live nearby and she'd have access to me more often and I to her. But she's great traveler, and super on an airplane, and seeing each other gets easier and easier.
Now I will process what I've just experienced, slowly and patiently, while I'm at the cabin for the next two weeks. Lovely1
