visiting grandma in the hospital.

her knee replacement surgery was a total success. grandma will be riding bikes with us in no time.

the kiddos were very considerate and loving as we visited. they sure love their grandma.

i love the way they're so sweet to each other when they forget not to be. 
they tune in for an episode of charlie and lola and where once they were crowded and fussy they turn to snuggle-mush.

can i bottle those freckles and box up the gradient of hair shades?

one nurse really fell for these kids and took them for rides around the hallways in a wheelchair. she snuck them graham crackers and milk and even a candy bar each.

i'm so glad for the adventures that come along with being in a loving, supportive family. i wouldn't wish the hospital on anybody, but it is sure a joy to visit when the chance arises.
