Home Is Where The Heart Is

We went home to Northern Virginia that weekend to visit my parents. We were celebrating my mom’s birthday and my grandmother was in town. It was difficult not being able to say anything to them, particularly when they were sitting in the family room. My mom was knitting her future unborn grandchild a blanket. Talk about surreal! My heart warmed at the thought that her dream was going to come true very soon. My mom has never been shy about wanting a grandchild. She has never been pushy, but she does have a basket in the corner of my bedroom at the house that is filled with various books and toys that she has started collecting for her future grandchildren! I mean, can we talk about how ready she is?!
