Alex Moves This Weekend

Well, my Alex gets his new house this weekend. He will be 4 in June and has always lived in an apartment, so him and his parents are excited to be moving into their first house. It is a three bedroom with a big fenced backyard. Grammy can't wait to see his new room. It is a home that is in a beautiful, older, quieter part of town with large trees. I am so happy for them. He is totally into anything to do with Thomas the Train. One thing about Alex, he is totally dedicated to Thomas. His birthday isn't until June, but his Mom is already starting to work on him to have his party in something different than Thomas this year!!

One day, though, his Mom will look up and Alex will have outgrown Thomas the Train; and she'll wonder where the time has gone. It is so hard for me to believe how much my life has changed over the past five years. My life has been fuller, rich with laughter and silliness, and is flying by faster every year. I am very fortunate to have children that treasure their children and take the time to give them the memories of a wonderful childhood. And I thank all my kids for including Grammy in so much of their babies lives.
