4 generations of slyter women

this weekend the bean met the slyter women- aunt carol, grandma and great grandma. it was a sweet, sad time as great grandma is needing some extra care and will be living in an assisted living place. but that's not what i want to talk about. we had such a good visit. great grandma is so excited that you are coming, baby. she smiled and smiled when i told her about you! the lady loves babies. she even said, "now i have something to look forward to." - which was great.

your grandma and i also took you for your first pedicure. this is a long tradition for the slyter women. i can't wait til you're on the outside so all of these women who love you can hold you and hug you.

I will never forget the look of delight on Great Grandma Slyter's face when you told her you were going to have a baby. I get misty just thinking about it. You are right Kar, it was a wonderfully happy-sad time we had together.

We are all going to need lots of visits as the bean and I grow bigger.
Love, and more love...
