8/29/10 X's birthday party--fun

Sometimes you do things for family. I've had a bad cold and with me that can lead to problems. Today was xavier's birthday. It's a family party that Becky and Kevin fly in for and Rain and Ryan wait for Luke and I to come back from Bear Valley so we can celebrate together.

I stood up and took everything I could and went to B town to celebrate. And I prayed that I'd be there for the kids.

When Violet saw me, she was so excited. She smiled really big and said, "Gramma!" And she ran over to me and gave me a big hug. They she went back to playing with her friend. But the greeting was precious.

I did a good deed and I was showered with love.

I was tired, but I ate a little extra and it put me on my feet.

When Aunti Becky and Uncle Kevin wanted to bring Xavier home to our house--I started to say no. Then I thought they don't get to see the kids often. We'll manage. And we did. What a sweet feeling.
