When last we visited I mentioned 2 hours to leaving #1 grandson home as we return to our Louisiana home. But what an eventful 2 hours it would be. Mom & dad brought Calvin to the hotel for his first swimming adventure and he loved it. Calvin had a blast swimming with momma while we all watched and encouraged and snapped pictures. Photos soon! Swimming checked off the list Calvin accompanied the adults to lunch at a nice Italian Restaurant before we all parted ways. He was so well behaved! Leaving our little fella behind is tough; for us that is, as we won't be together again until July. But leaving him with his mom & dad, our daughter-in-law and son, makes things a-ok as they are awesome parents.
About 2 pm EDT we departed south by southwest and made it to the other side of Atlanta, leaving Wendy and I a simple 6 hour drive on Monday before we return to the reality of work and yard-work and ministry. I in fact have a busy week ahead. By Sunday though I will be on Skype with my Calvin!
As I mentioned in a recent post, being a grandparent(Pops) is so cool and the source of profound peace. I am so honored to be my little man's Pops!
And I am at peace with our realities because we manage it very well; my little family has a great life in northern North Carolina; my wife and I a great life in southeast Louisiana. It is all good.
So as I just posted on facebook, sleep well little man. Your Pops(and Nona too) miss you so already but flat can't wait to see you again!
Your prayers for continued traveling mercies are very much appreciated!
