So . . .

*The title is dedicated to Grandma. ;->

Vanessa had an overnight at Grandma and Grandpa's a couple weeks ago. She apparently gave an exhausting performance . . . Vanessa has been waking in the middle of the night recently, as most her age might. She requires a little reassurance but usually goes back to sleep. Unfortunately Grandma and Grandpa were given a special treat by experiencing one of her first nights in this stage.

As Vanessa becomes more familiar with her environment and develops independence, she'll begin to understand her special connection to warm and loving grandparents. She's obviously very fond of them already. And how could she not be when her time with them is so fun and exciting?! They're great at letting Vanessa be the wild little person that she is!

Vanessa calls this picture "Meeeooowww . . .":

Grandma said that Vanessa had to wear Cousin Celia's Snoopy pants overtop her sleeper. Apparently the hat and jacket were nice accessories:


"Grandma and Grandpa, you are special.
Your love knows no bounds.
A room takes on a special warmth whenever you're around.
You think I'm cute and talented and maybe, even wise.
But I know that's because all grandparents see through loving eyes.
Every day with you is precious.
I'm so grateful for the time.
Of all the grandparents in the world
I'm thankful that you're mine. "
