My parents visited this weekend, and we all had a blast. We took a picnic lunch to the park yesterday, Ashlinn got to go shopping with Grandma and Papa, and then Mommy and Daddy got to go out for a quick dinner before Carys decided she needed to eat ASAP. Ashlinn also got to go without a nap, which is a big treat. And she spent the whole day playing with Grandma, which is an even bigger treat.
This morning, she could tell something was up. I didn't have to tell her that Grandma and Papa were going to have to leave; she somehow just knew. So, she took Grandma captive. She led her into her room to play in her tent and read books, and then she didn't let her out. Every time she wanted to get a new book from the living room, she'd say, "No, I'll go get it; you stay here" and then she'd shut the door. Once my mom asked if she could go to the bathroom while Ashlinn was getting a new book, and Ashlinn said no. She didn't want Grandma to leave.
Sigh. I feel bad and wish we lived closer to each other so she could see Grandma and Papa more often -- for all of our sake's.
