Off to Visit

We drove down to Leominster last night to visit Stepdaughter Wendy and her Boyfriend Allan. Stepson Kenny joined us for the dinner we were supposed to have on Sunday but that was cancelled cause of weather. This is a new apartment for them....they just moved beginning of the month. The place is really nice. Clean, nicely painted and with an extra bedroom for the baby. They already had it set up pretty nicely. We had a good visit. Of course baby Noah was the center of attention. He's five months old now and a bundle of energy. He smiles easily with the big toothless grin and the drool rolling down. I got a bunch of great open-mouth, wet, mushy baby kisses. I love it! Wendy made a delicious spiral ham with mashed potatoes and veggies. It's so funny to see your "child" become an adult. Adult? She's a kid! Yea, a kid who's 23, living on her own, working, with a serious relationship and a baby. hmmmmmmm....I guess that IS an adult. But it's hard for me to see it that way. I still freak out that my 30 year old son is an adult! He talks about finances and investments and whatever and I'm like.....didn't I change this kid's diapers?? Today is my first full day off in months. (not counting Sundays.....I mean day off when everyone else is working....that's the only real day off). It was nice to sleep in and now I'm going to visit my Mom whom I haven't seen in weeks.
