Sometimes, the greatest gifts are not all wrapped up in boxes and bows. Today, I spent 5 hours with little boys. Excited to see me and anxious for kisses and hugs and baths and bedtime stories about 5 little monkeys, and filling GiGi in on what's happened in the week and 4 days since she left.
Who cares, who made an a$$ of themselves on music award shows, or tennis courts, or hall of fame inductions, or outburst from Reps on the floor. For a brief moment in time nothing else mattered but a GiGi and her boys, reconnecting and unconditional adoration. You just can't put a price tag on that. Wrap it up, I'll take it every day of the week!

I love it! Did you see the video of the little girl who tossed the ball back? It sums up what you said. Sweetest thing ever!
The idea of being a grandma is lovely. The parenting thing is hard!

There's a strong possibility that they'll be there for Halloween. I'm working hard to make that happen!
