Babies and more babies!  In the last year, there have been 5 grandbabies born (Samantha, Emilia, Bridget, Nicole, Jovi), with two more due in the new year.  

This fine day, after the pool, Suzanne came for a visit.  So Evelyn came over with Bridget, and Sonja with Kaia, then Kathryn had an appointment for Jovi, so she took Achilles and we watched Rhys, Jamie, and Ellis.  (They were SO good!).  We had coffee, we had tastes of the amazing cinnamon rolls Suze brought from Wegmans, the kids had pears and cheese and crackers and cookies, and shh, candy corn.  (Jamie was so sad they were all gone yesterday, he said, "I smell the candy corn...", but the bowl was empty.). So I bought a new bag in the Dollar General today after the pool, the autumn mix with the pumpkins in it.  

Sweet baby Nicole has some infections going on, don't know much more than that, but it's a really hard situation for the soul.  We love the babies, we love the children God sends us right from heaven.  They are entrusted to us, and we are so thankful for them.  I'm not sure what to say about this, it hurts my heart.  

The girls are watching East of Eden, so I am watching it with them...so you have a good night!
