Sweet, sweet Abigail

I knew I had a sweet little girl but oh my goodness, I had no idea. We have been at my parents for two days and Abi has done nothing but tell Grandma how much she loves her, give snuggles, and hugs and kisses. Who is this sweet heart? Abi is so gentle and sweet (no trouble at all) and literally tells Grandma and Papa she loves them every five minutes. She wouldn't even run to the grocery store with me because she wanted to stay with Grandma, and when Grandma lays down for a nap Abi wants to lay right next to her. Cute cousin Evie came over today to visit and Abi had to give her kisses too, and help give her a bottle. Ben toddles around arms stretched up in the air, someone please pick me up and love me. He has grin from ear to ear and has been so sweet and good (hasn't gotten into anything). I was a little worried bringing both kids down would be too much with my mom still needing so much help but so far they have been an absolute joy. I'm still worried about my mom and being here doesn't lessen the worry. Baby steps, a little progress at a time. Vision, a tiny bit better; balance, a tiny bit better; mental state, same. I guess I never realized before during previous visits that her brain (thought process) just isn't working right. My dad is definitely getting burnt out. Taking care of someone 24/7 and doing house chores is a lot for anyone. Which is why I am so glad Abi and Ben are like little rays of sunshine, happy and sweet, and perfect. I've heard a friend say before and it's so true- "no storm clouds are a match for my child's sunshine".
