Yea! It’s Friday. Are you as excited as I am?
It’s time for Five Minute Fridays. Lisa Jo Baker provides a prompt word, and we write for five minutes of unedited fun! We link up and share our writings with other bloggers around the globe.
Our word today is VISIT.
Ready?
Set!
Go!
Today I had a nice, long visit with my parents. I always enjoy their company, and today was no different. We talked about a variety of things, even reminiscing about things over the years. Our favorite topic of conversation when we visit is, of course, my girls. We talked about how much they have grown and how proud they are of their grandchildren. During today’s visit, my mom talked about memories she has of my girls from when they were toddlers running around the house. She makes me smile as she recaps these moments. My dad smiles and nods as he, too, can remember them at such a young, tender age and can recall everything my mom is referring to. They talked of when my children would visit and how still to this very day it thrills their heart when my children call or come around. Just knowing that they want to spend time with their grandparents means everything to them. They have a bond with their grandparents that has been cemented through the years. I am so happy that they have the type of relationship with my parents that they do have with them as it has been so very important in shaping and molding them into the people that they are today. Oh yes, a wonderful day for a visit with my parents and a walk down memory lane. There’s just nothing like visiting with your parents and spending quality time with them. It’s precious, indeed. I love moments spent with them and treasure them.
STOP!
