Okay, I'm feeling much more chipper now:) My mom and step-dad came to visit over the past few days and just left this afternoon. It was a last-minute, quick trip, but it was much appreciated. They got in Thursday afternoon and surprised the kids. Macy's reaction was priceless; she saw them walking up from the kitchen window, ran to the door and was so surprised and happy she was laughing and crying at the same time. Nick just kinda stood there and Stephen spent the first 10 minutes hiding behind my legs. I guess it took longer for the surprise to register for the boys:)

We just hung out Thursday night. Friday while Nick was at preschool we had lunch with Macy at her school and hung out with her at recess. After picking up Nick, I showed them around town and we took a trip to the mall. That night we ate at Texas Roadhouse and went to the movie "Shorts." It was super-cute.

Which brings us to today already. Mom, Macy and I visited the AWESOME Fort Wayne Library, which includes one of the country's largest geneology collections. While Mom perused the census records of 1930, Macy and I looked up and checked out a few books on her current favorite topics - Horses, Cats and Dogs. The visual you see with this post is the cover of one of her books. It's what she calls the "Mollie Cat" - she says it looks just like me:) Strangly enough, I might have to agree. I'm pretty cute, right?
