Christmas came early this year, thanks to Grammie. We received a very large package in the mail today, and the girls dove right in.
The girls were especially helpful in removing the copious amounts of tape. Anyone who has ever received a parcel in the mail from my mom knows that she packages gifts with lots of love and lots of elbow grease.
The girls weren’t even distracted by the tissue paper. This must be a sign that they’re growing up! They threw it aside and went right for the contents.
However, Becky did get a little sidetracked by the parenting magazine my mom enclosed for my benefit. Becky flipped through it first to make sure it was appropriate for me.
Susie wanted to help out as well, so she handled the enclosed card.
Were the girls ever excited with what Grammie sent! She had bought them ornaments, shiny black dress shoes, adorable Christmas outfits, and best of all…
…winter jackets!
Who knew the girls would make such cute Eskimos? Bring on the snow! (Well…in a few months. I’m happy to be snow-free right now!).
Glad the package arrived safely ( and quickly!)
How clever of you to have the girls dresed in stripes in preparation for the parka stripes. It’s almost like it was planned. Good Job. Looks like Susie will get at least two years out of that jacket!
As you all must know by now, it was my pure delight in getting the girls those outfits!
Love,
Mom/Grammie
What a wonderful Grammie, they are truly becoming “little ladies” as they seem so excited with their new clothes. Becky
Cute jackets, Grammie! Grams are the best!
