Arizona

Matt brought me his computer do-da this weekend, so I am blogging! Jamie is so good to us! She fixes fabulous meals, invites us to all the boys doings, and tonight we spent a wonderful Friday night with the whole family having buffalo wings and walking a great outdoor mall. She has more energy than a train. She is nothing short of magic how she runs a salon, several social groups, the scouts, exercises up the Ying Yang and keeps smiling. But most of all she loves her boys and her man. She cheers them all on saying "Run harder, you are the best, you can do anything!" She makes me want to get in there and run faster too. She was so tender and kind to Margie as you can see from this picture. One Sunday Mom was beside herself not being able to figure out why she was in Arizona and not her home. Jamie just took her over. She painted her fingernails, and massaged her hands and asked questions and listened carefully. It meant so much to Margie. She tells me about it all the time. Another time she rubbed her feet with lotion and listen to her stories from her journal. Mom loved the little boys. Her favorite time was pushing Grady around in a grocery cart in Wallmart while the boys were picking out their Christmas surprises. They had the best talk. Jaces loves everything in Wallmart. She always wanted to save valuables for the boys, like straws from Wendy's, mild sauce from Taco Bell, and little hotel soaps. They made her smile. I wish I could wisk her back and forth. I miss her.





Dad and I have the biggest smiles on because it is so fabulous to live a jump away from the Heaps. I get to read with Jace's class and watch him grin. Even met LuLu his hon. Grady's personality is just like the picture. He is so adorable. Dax saved me the Frosty coupon he earned from jogging 40 laps at school. The last lap was a squeaker with the encouragement of his Mom. We are going on a date to Wendy's. This is an amazing window of time to eat up the Heaps. Hope we aren't smothering them. Dad says I am Margie and need to relax. But I am learning there is nothing like family. There in lies our greatest joys. I love you all. Thank you Matt for fixing Dad up with every movie imaginable, and Jamie a giant thank you for getting Dad walking. We love the Heaps. Can't wait for next week when I get to spend time with my favorite people. Ya Ba Da Ba Do!
