(Hugs) for all those missing mothers or family members who weren't able to visit.
I got a surprise today. Thursday I got a card from one DD. Other DD called really early this morning, I was still in bed. A minute later there she was at the door with 3 DGSons. I had no idea they were coming. DH already was in church so we got ready and went to the 2nd service and DH stayed with us. We went for lunch on the way home. I didn't want to try any of our overcrowded restaurants so I suggested a soup/salad/sandwich place and they were ok with that.
After they went to visit their other grandmother, we had a nice afternoon at home. Played card games together just like we did when they were little. 16 - 21 yr olds playing go fish and then our own brand of poker. Nobody could call it gambling the way we do it. We use the chips but lend to each other when we get low and I was out first so I just used the "bank".
I guess it's about sitting together doing something. They had to leave in the afternoon to get DGSs tuxedo from yesterday's wedding (his friend) back to the store before they closed. It was a real treat to see them. I have a nice potted hydrangea and I think we're too hot for it outside but after a bit I might try it in a shaded spot.
Dee, I'm sorry DSA's family have Covid again. I have read that some people get it again...I guess they don't develop enough antibodies...or maybe he just really didn't have it before.
