I think I have a picture of nearly every one of my grandchildren wearing my shoes. Emma is especially interested in all of my shoes. She takes them off my feet and wears them around or as soon as I take them off, on her feet they go. I am not sure she could jog very well in these.

So Emma has really become the potty princess. She is very careful to take her business seriously and she likes to go in my bathroom to do it. So this morning as she was washing her hands, she looked to the side and there at her disposal, was a bag full of lipstick. She thought it was lip gloss and didn't realize that there was any color in it. She tried this particular color on and when she glanced in the mirror she was quite pleased. (Which brought up the "lipstick" lecture. You know how mommies and grammies are the only ones that can use lipstick.) I couldn't believe how old she looked in this picture...kind of scary.

So after church on Sunday I went to Edine's house in Lowell. I had gone up to Girl's camp to visit them a few weeks ago. I had commented that I had never tasted chile rellenos (spelling is probably wrong) anywhere as good as hers. I am not kidding they melt in your mouth and are sooooo good. Nothing has ever compared. So she invited me to come down to her house and she would teach me. How could I resist. I now know how to make the best. Whether I can duplicate them remains to be seen. We all brought something for the meal. They let me off easy with chips and salsa, and Edine, Kris and I spent the afternoon together. Afterwards, Edine took me to see, her mom, Marian. It has been a long time since I have seen her. Despite her stroke, she hasn't changed much. Lots of zing and still talks nonstop. I loved seeing her and when I left she told me to be sure to tell all my children that she sends her love and thinks of you all often. Pretty cool...
