The most memorable part of the trip so far would be the first night I dropped the kids back off at their grandparents house, where they are living, just as Shelby's grandfather was closing the door, she yelled, "wait! wait!" so I turned around to see the door opening again and Shelby running out to tell me bye and give me a hug! It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it!
Funny moment - The last day I was with the kids, we were eating hamburgers at the hotel. Shelby took a bite of a really hot hamburger and made a concerned sound as she opened her mouth full of hot hamburger and looked at me not knowing exactly what to do. With a slight chuckle, I asked her if she wanted me to blow on it to cool it off. Her mouth still wide open, she nodded yes. So I leaned over and started blowing on the hamburger in her mouth. After just a few seconds, I couldn't contain how funny the situation was anymore and I busted out laughing which, of course, triggered Shelby laughing histerically, still with a mouth full of hot hamburger. Once we stopped laughing, I asked her if it was cool enough. After she rotated the hamburger in her mouth a little bit, the worried look once again came back to her face and I could tell it was still too hot. So I asked her if she wanted me to blow on it again and she nodded yes again. And once again we both laughed histerically. Anyway, we repeated this process 3 or 4 times and I still chuckle just thinking about it! :-)
Myatt you have beautiful children!! AND...so well behaved :) Sure glad you were able to spend some time with them!
