A few minutes of joyfulness

What a lovely surprise PECS!

How lovely. My DD complains that DGD never stops talking. I said 'I know, isn't it wonderful?' She's at university now and we miss her SO much.

What a great thing to happen PECS. Thanks for your post, it's so cheering and life affirming.

How lovely!
(did she test the cookies?)

I can imagine why PECS. She lightened your life today and many others on here who read your lovely post.

Your lovely story brought tears to my eyes . Isn't it wonderful how something so spontaneous , unexpected and simple can give you the most joy ? It's nice when they blether about their day , sharing things with you . She sounds like a super girl .

How lovely she sounds very special lucky Grandma.

A real 'magic moment' thanks for sharing

How lovely. Such a happy and tender moment in time. My smile today came when my little two year old GD looked at her mammy's graduation photo and remarked "Mammy is a pirate". It made me chuckle for the rest of the day. Priceless.

Must be peanut cookie day! Just made some too for grandchildren.

What recipe do you use PECS as I’ve lost my original and today’s was way too sweet?

Nice to hear a happy story PECS sounds like you have a good relationship with your granddaughter. What a lovely life you have just baking all day

Anja it was from the Hummingbird Recipe Book that my DGSs gave me!

Thanks all for you kind comments! She is a very funny person & on that cusp of young womanhood.

Absolutely precious! Something money could not buy.

How lovely! Can't wait for mine to be old enough to pop round by themselves

Those incidental moments with grandchildren are just delightful PECS.

Sometimes I have pangs of regret, when friends have new grandchildren, that I won't have that baby experience again but then have a moment like to day and I know there are new experiences and fun to come that are just as precious!

Thank you PECS

Oh what a lovely little interlude for you Pecs. Spontaneous moments with GC - and indeed DC - are somehow so much more enjoyable than planned visits aren't they? They just brighten up an otherwise ordinary day ????

That's just lovely

My d's and family come to us for Sunday dinner.
In Saturday past he suggested to his family that we all go out for dinner on Sunday.

Dgd 11 was appalled. We can't do that. Granny's dinners are swesome. Despite ending up.cooking for all (again) I was secretly very pleased..

Just to add that ds and family are appreciative and he does often take us out.

Isn't it lovely when you find that a grandchild will CHOOSE to spend time with you .................. without having to be brought for a visit by their parent :-D.

My eldest DGD is away at Uni (part way through her 2nd year), so isn't always around these days, but it's lovely to get a phonecall or text to say 'Hello. Are you in/busy? Can I call round or stay the night? Can you meet me for coffee/lunch?' Her boyfriend and her friends call out 'Hello Narnie!' when she's on the phone to me - I am SO PROUD of the wonderful girl that she's grown up to be and the lovely friends that she has around her.

What a heartwarming post indeed and thank you for sharing it with us. Just delightful.
