Eliza met her Great Grandma Swensen for the first time yesterday. I don't make the time to visit her as often as I should and it makes me feel bad. She just loves the little ones! It was fun to see her light up as we walked in the room. Haley gave her some tender hugs throughout our visit and Tye was content with the one he gave when we arrived. (Rachel and Kaden were at school.) She will be 95 later this year. She has always been very adamant about how she is not ready to leave this life, but her attitude has changed... which was a bit sad, yet she was happy as she said she probably won't be around much longer and that she has had a good life! I have many fond memories of her and love her very much. Now I just need to be a better granddaughter and visit her more often.

You are so lucky you have this pic! My grandma passed away right before Kaden was born. I wish I could have had that generation photo. I love to see the smile on their face--remembering the time when they were our age with young kids. It makes me not want to grow up.
