an Easter Week of blessings

I just spent a week in NYC with Jason, Laura, Oliver (our grandson) and Little Johnnie Cash (their dog).  What a blessed time.  Bill joined us on Good Friday and we returned home together yesterday.  We came home with 130 pictures of Oliver Tate!  Well, when you live long-distance you want to store these up, for sure.  I'll just pick out a few favorites to share with you :)

May I just say, "The boy IS delightful!" 

 

I could watch him play all day....and I did! 

 



He loves his "walking bike" and is very agile in maneuvering it around. 

 

See what I mean!  We were all a little shocked when he climbed right up on the seat.  (note Mamma Laura's facial expression and Little Johnnie Cash's eyes popping out)   ...I'm sure we all looked the same way!

He's learning to feed himself and is very determined to do it on his own!

 "Is this to wear on my head?"

"Yep, it must be a hat."

"Oh, it is to put things in!"

                                                                 "Well, I think I'm gonna like it."

 "What! 

                                                                              Even an avocado!"

    Well..pictures are worth a thousand words, they say. 
      Indeed, we were blessed beyond measure.
