DAY 127

I went to visit my daughter and her family today. The baby was sleeping when I got there. My daughter and my two-year-old granddaughter sat out in the yard and visited. When my daughter heard the baby starting to wake up she told me to go wash my hands. She was going to let me hold the little critter. I cried like a baby.

I held that little chick for about ten minutes. I walked around the yard with her, showing her the leaves on the trees and talking to her about the color green. She was reluctant to look me in the eyes because she does not know me. Having to talk to her through a mask is not the ideal situation, either, but I will take what I can get at this point. It felt so wonderful to finally have her in my arms. When this insanity is over we are going to have some serious catching up to do.
