So my mom and my grandma are up visiting and taking care of the baby goats for a couple of days. Spending some good quality time playing, eating, spoiling, and laughing.
Tonight we were all hanging out in the basement. I was asking the typical questions to Sophie..."how was your day? What did you have for lunch? What did you, Great-Grandma, and Grandma do today?"
And here is how one particular conversation went.
Me, "Sophie, what time did you get up this morning?"
Sophie, looking right at me with those big brown eyes, "Great-Grandma woke me."
Me, "Great-Grandma woke you up?"
"Yeah. Great-Grandma woke me."
Great-Grandma butts in, "No I didn't." And she just broke into a tearful laugh, as did my mom. I too had a pretty good giggle going. Which Sophie totally ate up.
Here's the kicker. I had already known that my grandma went to check on her this morning and she had said that Sophie was already awake (with a loaded diaper). She was just standing on the edge of her bed waiting for someone to come and get her.
As I re-read this, I can't seem to put into words how funny the moment really was. Precious times like that I just wish I could record in my memory bank forever. Too bad we didn't at least have the video camera going. I guess there will be many more moments to soak in and treasure.
