Malcolm

About a month ago Julie and I went a visiting.

A few photographs and a few videos were taken.
I do admit.

We had two primary goals.

We wanted to see Ryan and Ashley.
It had been quite a while.


We ate ice cream.
We ate a bunch of stuff.
Yummy.

We talked a lot.
About many things.

Ashley was feeling a bit under the weather.
If you know what I mean.

She wasn't up to much extra activity.



She had been quite involved lately.


A busy little furry mammal that builds aquatic structures.
As they say.

Ryan was able to spend time from work.



We were glad he could spend lots of time with us.
I don't think Ashley minded.



We went for walks.
Lindsay was able to spend a few days too.



She hadn't seen Ryan and Ashley for a while.




Fortunately, the weather was nice.
Quite comfortable actually.

Very sunny.
And warm.


And the second goal.

Of our visit.

Was.
Of course.
To see our beautiful new grandson.

Malcolm.

Welcome to our family dear little one.
Here you will find much love.
Happiness.

You have most wonderful parents.

We will miss watching you grow.
Watching you come to experience your new world.
Coming to know your sweet personality.
Your bright eyes.
Your gurgling laugh.
We'll miss watching you learn.
To explore.

We'll miss holding your hand.
Your little arms around our necks.

Though we are far away.
We think of you.
Delight in you.

Pray for you.
Miss you.

Love you.
Grandma & Grandpa

  1. What a sweet post! And such cute pictures of Malcolm! You and Julie are such wonderful grandparents. Your kids are so lucky to have you involved in their kids lives, even from a distance. We need to do something though about the whole you not being able to watch him grow up first hand thing...I think all the family should just decide on a place and all move there, K?

  4. Yep, me again. I was looking again at this post and realized that Malcolm has lost so much of his hair and gained so much weight! I wonder what his hair will grow in as? Red and curly like so many people ask me? ;) *wink*
