this moment in time

After having the grandchildren here for a few days, we have settled into a comfortable groove. I have enjoyed being with them and hope they feel the same. Today we drove about fifteen miles to the aquarium at Fort Fisher, a decent attraction for all ages. John got to see some cool sharks in the big tank, and Ashley especially enjoyed petting the sea anemones. Tonight we went to a big picnic at Hugh MacRae park, and to prove I am a good Grandmommy, I gave John a pass on the four plates of food he got. It was a good day that included more of being out in the nice weather, running and playing, and less time playing games on a tablet. I will miss them when they leave.
