Fun Day

I had such a nice day with the grandkids.  They were on their best behavior so we really had fun.  I took a new book and read it to Meg and Nathan after Andrew went down for his nap.  It's called Owen and Mzee, a true story about a baby hippo who's mom was killed in the tsunami.  He was rescued and taken to a refuge where he was put into an enclosure with a 130 year old tortoise, Mzee.  It's an amazing story of how Owen bonded to Mzee and how Mzee, a loner, got close to him.  They became best friends and surprised all the caretakers. 

When my son got home from work, Megan and I went to the mall.  We went to Build-a-Bear and she got a new bear, Jessie, and a new doll, Rachel.  She had so much fun picking out clothes and accessories.  When I see her again on Friday I will try to get pictures of the new additions to her 'family'.  We went to a department store and she picked out a new purse, a fancy beaded t-shirt and a 3 piece pajama set.  The girl can shop!!!  LOL  She was delighted with her selections and I was happy because I know she got exactly what she wanted.

I'll write more in the morning.  I'm too pooped to write more tonight.  Until then................ô..ô
