Yesterday we were going to go down to Boyd's parents to have dinner with Grandma Miller while she is still in town. But we had to babysit Karson and wouldn't be able to go down because of him. Turns out Karson's dad forgot the diaper bag and canceled the day. I believe in miracles.
We got to spend the lovely evening with grandma Miller. She is so funny and we just love that she is here in Ohio. Yesterday when it was time to bless the food she remarked "Don't call on me, I said it yesterday!"
Boyd and I especially love hearing the stories she has to tell. She told us that she and grandpa Miller were 18 years old when they got married. They had to bring their mom's along to get married. It was only the two of them and their parents at their wedding. She later told us about how grandpa Miller was working the late shift so she decided to get a job doing rivets. They went to work at 11 p.m. and came home at 7 a.m. She said the thing she will never forget are the itchy pants she had to wear to work.
She is such a fantastic lady and I am cherishing every minute we get to spend with her. Every night before she goes to bed she gives us a hug and says goodnight. Last night she was pretend punching Boyd and then decided to give him a hug. Oh how we love grandma Miller.
