Yesterday morning was just gorgeous! The beautiful sun was shining brightly and it was nice and warm. Emma and I got up early (for us) and took a nice long stroll around the neighborhood. She was in her stroller about half the time and she walked with me the other half. It was so nice to see all the tulips and daffodils blooming and the trees getting buds. I absolutely love spring... and especially love it after this cold snowy winter. As we were walking Emma said, "Look Mommy... it's daffodils. Grandmommy has daffodils at her house." It took me a minute to realize what she was talking about. On Sunday nights, Luke and Emma stay with Granny and Papa Johns and often they take golf cart rides back to Grandmommy Johns house. Emma never met Grandmommy Johns as she passed away about 4 months before Emma was born. But I love that Emma still gets to know her and hear about her and see where she lived... in some way it really makes me think she is close to her. Luke and Emma came home from Granny and Papa's house last night with a bouquet of daffodils from her house. It is beautiful and it is sitting on Luke's art table and a beautiful reminder of Andy's Grandmommy.
Also on our walk, Emma was riding in her stroller and just looked up at me and said, "Mommy! Mommy! (pause) Jesus loves you! " I love this kid. She's the best.
I think we'll go take a stroll this morning too... though the sun isn't as bright as it was yesterday... I can't wait to hear what my little sunshine has to say today! :)
