Dateline: July 2005Twins' Age: 3 and a half
She may be hard to see, but snuggly wrapped in the purple washcloth in Grandma Ross' hands is Ruthie, her vibrantly colored lovebird.
Naurally, visits to Grandma's are always special, but this one in particular will always stand out in my memory. The kids gently rubbed Ruthie's head, and got to "talk" to her outside the confines of her cage. Both were beside themselves with joy. From the looks of the photos, Grandma was, too.

You can totally see the excitement on every face! What a great photo captured! Happy WBW
Look at Sarah's cute little haircut. :) And I love when kids are so fascinated with an animal like that. Just precious.
And "coonskin" - I couldn't for the life of me think of that word last night when I was doing my post. That shows you how many brain cells I'm working off of these days. I changed it in my blog. Thank you!
Hope you guys are doing well and staying healthy and all that good stuff.
Hugs!
Love the excitement on their faces.
Great photo!
OK. Confession time. I read way too fast and misread things. I read, "snuggly wrapped in the purple washcloth in Grandma Ross' hands is Ruthie, her" vibrator. Well, you can imagine my surprise. I think your son's expression pretty much sums it up.
In actuality, the post is lovely and I am sure they did enjoy the bird.
So fun! I remember a time when I was visiting my gma and gpa on their farm and they bought my brother and me each a little teeny chick. We cared for them all summer. Funny, though, they were gone the next summer...???
Cute story and pics!
Those are GREAT!! You can totally see that they were all in heaven :)
Ahhh, I can see the joy! We have a cockatiel, and my kids are just now old enough to appreciate her (let alone any pet really) And we've had this same scene play out in our house, only with me, not grandma. Bet it would be more fun with grandma!!!!
And you're welcome for the comments! I meant every word!
The war thing, they teach it at school as part of math, in a "which is bigger, which is smaller" type setting, and the kids pick up on it. And of course when you meet that match, and have to lay out your three cards you just hear the giggles. Its rather fun!!
Thanks for your comment!
What a fantastic moment you captured! truly priceless!
Happy Whens-day :)
I Love your way back posts!

Hi,
I am a friend of Leigh Anne's, and I really like your idea of weekly themed blogs. Hope you don't mind me jumping right in?

i'm deathly afraid of birds...but that one is pretty...you can tell the kids wanna hold it and snuggle it. :)
Oh look how excited they are! Sweet!
That must have been so exciting. I just imagine my kids jumping up and down as soon as they saw the little bird.
I would have to agree...THEY ARE PRETTY EXCITED!
What a great picture. They look like they are having so much fun!!
I love the expression on Darren's face. He looks so excited!
Looks like Grandma enjoyed the moment just as much as Sarah & Darren! Those are very precious photos!
