Visit from the Grandparents

My parents were here for 10 days. The joy knew no bounds. Good moods all around. No, GREAT moods, and of course I am referencing Esther. She was overjoyed at having them here. We haven't seen my dad since January, so they had a lot to catch up on. And they certainly did! Games, and playing make believe, playing hide and seek, discussing deep matters, and learning and practicing letters pretty much nonstop all day long. It was so nice to see Esther sooooo happy almost allllll the time.

Sylvia had a blast too, as evidenced by the fact that her speaking expanded by about 2,359% while they were here. Not necessarily coherent words, but just in terms of how much she had to say. Her current favorite thing to do is to hold a toy microphone and talk LOUDLY into it for several straight minutes, addressing anything and everything about anything and everything.

Happy kids for ten straight days!
