Gloriously tired…
Soooo… Mum changed her flight schedule and arrived Thursday morning, which entailed a 5am drive to the airport which, living out on the peninsular, is at the opposite end of the earth. But all my work with Caspar, trying to get him excited about Oma coming on an aeroplane, paid off because he went running toward her as she emerged from customs.
After a couple of days catching up, last night I went to bed early and slept late and then we spent the day out visiting friends and family and now I am gloriously tired and not planning on writing very much more than this.
Did I say I had more important, meaning-of-life stuff to talk about?
Er… Not today.
But I do think this constitutes a Smiley Saturday post. Because I’m smiling.

Caspar running toward her…what a wonderful welcome!
And glad to see you smiling.

Happy Smiley Saturday.
Mum coming to visit is a great reason to smile.

@ Musing - Well, it took a little encouragement but since he hadn’t seen her since he was 9 months old, I was very pleased. And she was too, of course!
@ Marita - Yes, it is a great reason. Of course, I never appreciated her that much when she actually lived in the same country. Lol.

What a nice reason to smile! I love it when my mom comes to visit, even if she does live in the same country! And my kids love visits from their grandparents, too.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!

At little preparation works wonders doesn’t it! Hope you all enjoy the visit ;–)
I’m sorry to be a day late to the Smiley Saturday party, but my computer balked in the HEAT WAVE yesterday and I had to turn it off. I’ve posted my Smiley Saturday just now (on Sunday morning) and hope to visit others either later today or during the week. I hope you’ll drop by Small Reflections as time permits.
Hugs and blessings,

It’s so lovely watching kids and grandparents enjoy each others company. I hope you all have a fantastic time together and make heaps more smiles.

I am glad you are smiling and I hope you had a good time with your mum. I bet she was smiling with Caspar running towards her.
Gloriously tired sounds like the story of my life too.
Sorry I am late on SS - I have been playing catchup on my feeds/emails/comments and everything.
