It's Been Awhile, again....

7/1/18 -- I met my son and most of his family at a Chik fil-a about an hour from where I live, and 2 hours from him. (closest thing to meeting in the middle) 
  My daughter in-law had messaged me about 2-3 weeks ago, asking if my dad had any tools that my mom would be willing to either sell or give to my son, to help out with what he needs for his job.  I told that he has a bunch of tools, and asked what he needed.  She gave me a general list, which when I went back to mom's and took a look at what dad has in the basement, I was able to fulfill the request.  There was only one or two things that I couldn't account for: and that was a second batter pack and charger for the drill that I found.  I looked on Amazon to be sure that he could get the the charger and a second battery pack, and he can.  My Daughter in-law and I decided to meet in Madison to get the tools to my son.  
  We met at a Chik fil a and I actually had to overcome my "fear/nervousness" for driving in a high stinkin traffic area.  Thankfully, that restaurant wasn't too difficult to get too, but I just flat out despise driving in high traffic areas.  I literally have to have specific directions including the lanes that I need to be in to make the necessary turns on the right off ramps and such.
  I gotta say that I was overcome with emotion when I saw my two granddaughters, for the first time in like 3 years. I quickly got control because I knew I wouldn't get the same response, due to the fact they haven't seen me in that same length of time and my youngest doesn't even know me.  The middle one, I think just was being somewhat shy and unsure because I know she remembers me, it's just been a long time.  We need me time to get reacquainted and to get to know the youngest one.
  I will admit it was nice to hear my son call me mom, haven't heard that in a long time.
  I did tell my daughter in-law that the pictures that I have seen of my littlest granddaughter (even though she does an awesome job of capturing those beautiful blue eyes) just don't do her justice.  My littlest granddaughter is even cuter in person.
