My mom has been staying with us for several months helping with the kids and keeping me from going crazy while Scott has been gone. We took her to the airport this week so she could head back to her normal life. It was so nice having her stay with us. Everyone was a little depressed after she left. Here we are about to take her to the airport.
Grant took it the hardest. We had been prepping him for it by telling him "Grandma is going to go away on an airplane back to her house and we won't see her for a while..." etc. I think he did kind of understand. But later in the day he went to the door and cried for "gammaw" for about 30 minutes. He was clearly mad at me and kept pushing my arms away if I tried to hug him. Poor Grant.
He was not having any of my attempts to "nuggle" him
(his term for snuggle)
(his term for snuggle)
Here he is the next day after talking to "gammaw" on the phone...and about to take a nap. He was starting to feel better about the whole thing I think. And I think he might be done being mad at me about Grandma leaving. I think the chocolate helped too. I did wipe his face off after this...but had to take a picture first. :)

That was so nice of your mom to stay with you for so long and help out. I'm sure everyone was sad to see her go. But it looks like Grant might have drowned his sorrows in chocolate :)
Love,
Scott
