Look who’s here!
Remember yesterday I showed you those hanging strips of paper I’d made for her, each with some tidbit of grandmotherly wisdom? The arrangement you saw had ten offerings. Look what happened overnight.
It’s good she didn’t arrive a day later, or there’d probably have been double. So far she’s gone through these (the ones in handwriting were the last-minute additions):
It sure is lovely to have my little girl with me despite the one sacrifice I just realized I have to make. Stomach sated after dinner, I was gazing abstractedly at my absolute favorite mug when it hit me: that thing needs to go into hiding for a few months.
Before bed we had a little celebratory confetti-throwing.
Goodnight.
I am ecstatic that you two are together!!
This is gonna be so great for both of you!
