Last night Emma came over to play for a little while. After beating Mike and me at Sorry, and building towers with the magnets, Emma decided we needed to have a tea party. She choose the tea set, set the table, and planned the menu while I baked the cookies. For dinner we were going to have peanut butter cookies, and for dessert it would be chocolate sundae ice cream cups from the Schwan man (whose timing at our house was perfect - she loved shopping with the catalog!) After getting everything ready - including the booster chair for her "daughter," Emma had us come to the table. She served the tea, and the cookies. She was such a charming hostess! Our tea was perfectly sweetened, and our cups were never empty. Even her daughter had bites of cookie and sips of tea. After tea, we all settled on the couch and read one of Emma's favorite books until Daddy came to pick her up. Nothing is better than being able to spend time our with grandchildren! We are so blessed!

Oh Brenda, I can't wait to have tea parties with my granddaughter. What fun! Do you think they let you have tea parties in the nursing home?
Several days later, & Emma is still telling us how much fun she had that evening! Thank you for spending quality time with her!
