Home

I am so grateful to be in my home this evening.

No place feels as welcome.

Ollie is home.

She looks amazing.

I didn't realize how un-pink she was

until I have seen how pink she is now.

She is absolutely gorgeous.

She is her old smiling, cooing, 

trying-to-talk self now.

Today as we waited for the paperwork

and things to get rolling for our release

I told the kids about the OB

I had had when I had the twins

at Children's 27 years ago.

He was movie-star handsome

and so very wonderful during that hard time.

I said Annie had asked about him at the hospital

at one of her appointments

and he is a big deal there now. 

Jade went to get their stuff 

out of my hotel room and load it up.

When he got back I was going to go get mine.

Right before I started to go I got a text.

It said "Don't let your mom leave, Dr. Crane may call"

I said to Jade "did you mean to send this to me?"

His eyes teared up and he said "Dang it, did I send that to you?"

He was so ticked at himself.

I was so touched.

He went to the information desk and 

called Dr. Crane's office.

He talked to his secretary and related the story.

She said he had a full day of meetings,

but he would try to call.

He didn't call before we left, 

but Jade doing that for me

meant so much more

than any doctor's call.

It moves me that 

he was so disappointed that he texted me

and ruined the surprise

that his eyes filled.

I told him I would rather have known anyway 

so I wouldn't be a rambling goof on the phone.

Isn't he the sweetest?!

I am proud he is my son(in-law).

He is a great husband and 

a wonderful dad to my grand kids.

Ruby, you did good girl.

But, I still have to tell a story or two about ya.

You can thank me later.

Or hit me, whichever.
