Silly plastic eggs hang mysteriously on my backyard apple tree in this strange photo.'Grandchild catchers', I said when I hung them up with kite string three weeks ago, and today my wish came true when my delightful grandchildren from Illinois (and my beautiful daughter!) arrived from for an early Easter visit with us.
They got in around dinner time, and though it's now night and I am totally exhausted, I have really enjoyed being with everyone again and I look forward to seeing them again tomorrow.
I don't know what it is about grandchildren; I don't even really 'know' them, but I feel that I have always known them. They are fascinating people and I love immersing myself in learning about what their individual personalities are and what each of them likes.
I want to absorb everything about them so that when they are gone I can reflect and think about them.
By the way, they loved the eggs on the tree! :-)
