Yet another has arrived to enter my heart. My newest granddaughter, Emma, arrived on August 7, 2013. At the time of her birth, I was on a cruise ship, sailing up the east coast from New York to Canada. The occasion was my marriage to a most wonderful man.
I flew out to see her right after the cruise and can't explain how you can so easily fall in love with a wisp of a thing, but boy, immediately, my heart swelled with love and adoration for this little person who doesn't even know me yet.Trips out to Colorado are not as frequent as I would like them to be. I will try harder to get out there again real soon. They grow up so quickly, as I can attest to with my other five grandchildren.
Thank goodness for Face Time. I am able to keep close to Emma and hers sisters via that format. I love our talks and time spent over the Internet. It is wonderful. Today I Face Timed with her and her daddy. When he held the camera for her to see me, I watched as her eyes, wide open, seemed to focus on the image. I called her name and asked her if she remembered my voice. She did seem to be listening, or maybe it was my hope that she could.
I will Face Time and watch Emma grow until I get another chance to hold her in my arms again, kiss her face and smell her scent.
Wait for me Emma.....
