Hugging Dopey
We started our morning together watching Pinnochio in bed and after breakfast Finny watched Snow White while she clung to Dopey.
- Papa Pete and Finny Read Snow White
Papa Pete and Finny spend some time reading before it’s nap time. After a nap and lunch we were off to Central Park and the playground. By the time we got home, Gigi was pretty tired so Fin had a quick bath which for some reason she does not like at our house. I made her dinner, gave her some milk and she kept asking for a “movie” – oh how quickly they learn who is the soft touch – why it’s Papa Pete of course. So this is Finley Ray totally enthralled with Cinderella. BUT I did not let her watch the whole movie – we’ll finish it in the morning.

A bedtime story and it’s good night to you sweet Finny!

This is so sweet. I was used to seeing my two grandsons at least 3 days a week. My Mom moved in this past September. She has dementia and developed seizures. She recently had surgery because a cyst was found in her pancreas. Thank God it was not cancerous. She suddenly stopped eating one day, no matter what I offered. I knew I had to get her to a dr ASAP. She was admitted to the hospital on May 5th and released a week later. The dr didn’t have to do as much as he thought, but she now has a temporary (I hope) feeding tube in her stomach. I have to start the feeding about 8 pm, and disconnect her at 8 am. She hates it, but doesn’t remember not eating at all. So, most of my time has been spent caring for her. I have sisters, but they work. I had to leave my job in September to care for Mom. She is now 87. I miss seeing the grandsons only once a week. But my good friend has offered to come once during the week and on Saturdays so I can go see them. Grandchildren just give you what u need. Once they are out of school for the summer, my daughter-in-law is going to come for a few hours once a week, and I get to spend more time with the boys! She is in nursing school, so her schedule is busy, but I am touched that she has offered to do this for me. I had a total melt down last night,. I was missing the grandsons so badly, but got to see them today. Sorry to ramble, but the picture of Finley at Gigi’s made me think of my own. I know both you and Papa Pete enjoyed her. She sure has her own personality-you can tell by the pics! She is one lucky little girl, and you are lucky by having her.
