Julian. the great grandson. from California. for about 3 weeks, give or take.
i am getting ready. this little table, the red chair, the cushion are from Alz B's house. it's slowly being cleared out. the red chair is from her childhood. the little mimbres painted table, and the pillow, from her livingroom. am looking. remembering how all the kids liked to play restaurant. I can be the waitress. i will teach him to leave generous tips.
this comment is just a test. i am trying to get my sign in name
to read just grace Forrest. not Forrest~Maestas. so, just checking to see if i’ve made any progress.

How welcoming that tableau of table, pillow and chair. I’ll send something for your tea time along with the prayer flag and try to get it there within the time of his visit.

A perfect choice…although I suspect he’ll want to serve and you’ll have to leave some tips. 🙂

me, too. i still have my little rocker that i got when i was 2, and a little table & chair that were k’s mom’s, & my favorite horseshoe chair that i lounged in growing up w/good books. it’s covered in leafy green velvety fabric, very worn & dirty, but comfy.

play. pretend. imagination.
make things up.
he’s never been to the Old Nana’s since he can remember.
the last time he was a lap baby. this will be very
different. he misses his goats. they are here and that night we left California in the rain, we said it was Far
Away. he remembered that. he is thinking about COME ING
Far Away, to where his Nana and his Old Nana and his
goats are.
i would love to see his mind right now.

Oh Grace, it will be wonderful! I look at my little Jacob’s picture every day and know that he is now 2! He has probably forgotten us by now. You are so lucky to be able to be part of Julian’s life and he is so lucky to have you. It will be a sweet visit, he will be in goat heaven.
