a guest post -- by "the house fairy"

While "Baby Boomer Grammy" is attending to more important matters, like flossing her teeth, I thought I'd sneak onto her blog, and introduce myself.

I am the house fairy! What an exciting week it's been.  Baby Boomer's grandkids have all gotten surprise visits from me (except those darlings in Minnesota, but their turn will come). For their sparkling clean rooms, they get surprise treats from me.

I was in for an especially big treat when I flew to Vidor to surprise the grandkids there. Not only were their rooms so clean that it took my breath away, but I was able to congratulate Dario on a very special event --

He was getting baptized that very same day!  I couldn't stick around to see the happy event (house fairies are very busy), but his Baby Boomer Grammy and Grandpa did.  I can see why they love him sooo much and are so very proud of him.  Not only does he have a very neat and tidy room, but he is a very fine young man who is making very good choices. Way to go Dario!
  love, housefairy 

a lovely day

The day started off with breakfast for the two of us, with heartshaped pancakes for my sweetheart (heart-healthy, of course, made with oat flour, white wheat flour,flaxseed, cherries, almonds, etc, -- topped with peach yoghurt, blueberries) I just take a regular buttermilk pancake recipe and do substitutions.)

Then the mailman came and brought a surprise all the way from Minnesota --

The grandbabies painted these hearts!

This totally made our day! Thank you Saige and Colby (and mommy for being so creative)!
And it's only 10:00 a.m. What a great start to a lovely day.
Happy Valentine's day and love to all!

Aren't they cute?

These cuties are getting extra special attention on my blog because....

They're both having February birthdays (Jessica's B.D. is Feb 4th , I can't remember Lady's)

and they're both missing their Walter, who is away in the Carribean, studying hard to be an M.D. Next year's birthday celebration will be a lot happier, with their Daddy lots closer.
Happy birthday Jessica!
