Anna Grace - August 19

Yeseterday morning the "check engine" light on my beloved Toyota Camry came on. So, after AG's morning nap I loaded up the kids and headed to the Toyota dealership to find out what was going on. After about 45 minutes I was told that I needed a new oxygen sensor and that it would take about 3 hours to do. Nope.... now way... not with two kids in the waiting room with me! So, I schedule to bring it in this morning and drop it off to have the work done - childless. So, this morning at 7:30 am I headed out to Toyota to drop off my car. They were very generous and gve me a loaner car... A Yaris. It's a COMPACT car to say the least, but supposdley gets like a million miles to the gallon. If I were single without two kids it really would be a a practical car. Anyway..... I came home and then my hubby went to work - the plan being that at noon (or whenever they called and said the car was ready) hubby would come home to sit with the kids and I would ride back up there and pick up my beloved Camry. However, at noon hubby was covered up at work so I called my Mom to come sit with the kids during her lunch break at work. Ordinarly this would not be a big deal, but Anna Grace has NEVER stayed with anyone other than Brian or I. She also really doesn't let anyone hold her for longer than about 2 minutes so honestly I wasn't sure how the 30 minutes would go while I drove to Toyota & picked up my car & came home. My Mom was a trooper and was willing to come stay. I hurridley went and got back as quickly as I could - probably gone about 40 minutes. I am happy to report that Anna Grace did fine for my Mom. She let my Mom feed her some rice cereal and then put her on the floor to play toys. She did fine. I am ecstatic and am ready for Mee-Maw to come sit ANYTIME for me!!!!! Today was a BIG day for AG AND for Mommy. Not to mention the fact that Mee-Maw was over the moon to be able to spend some time with AG. Another hurdle crossed today :) Thank you Lord!
