My mom and I drove three hours to Arkansas to let Chesley meet her great-grandmothers. My dad's mom had a ball with Miss Chesley and of course the camera made its way out. She held her and talked to her and played like the mother of four, grandmother of nine, great-grandmother of 3 that she is. At first she was letting Chesley play with a tissue she managed to grab from the box but when MawMaw had to go in after some chewed off pieces she decided to try another option-and it was a hit. MawMaw has a ton of her rings all hooked on a gold chain-not sure why but she does and she wears it everyday and when she started jingling that wad of shiny stuff in Chesley's face the child was euphoric and it bought us another 30 minutes of visiting time before Chesley was done. It was a wonderful visit and one I am very glad we were all able to make.
