A little bit about me and a lot about the things we do.

Jennifer's Children's Shoppe

Our daughter, Jenn has four beautiful children which means that we have four amazing grandchildren.  From the time that Jenn was a little girl she wanted to have her own little house.  I remember when she would look across the road when we lived in Frankford and would see the little white house and say that she wanted to live there.  When Ron and I were on a motorcycle trip a couple of years ago I snapped this pictures as we drove by thinking of Jenn.
Our first little granddaughter came five years ago this August.  Sarah is a beautiful little girl that warms everyone's heart.  She is in junior kindergarten and seems to love the learning environment. 
She has a great imagination and has lots of energy.  The other night when we were skyping she helped me make supper, set the table and even asked for a bite.  From the time that she learned how to walk she would ask everyone if they wanted to go for "a little walk."  We get along great because we both liked our timmy's.
Along with her energy she has a little spunk and she loves to tease and knows how to do it well.  She can be a little bossy, but then again isn't that what all big sisters do best. 
Her favourite colour is purple and she loves jewellery and nail polish.  Sarah remembers us the best and is quick to correct her younger sister on what to call us.  Speaking of younger sisters...that brings us to Emma.
Emma was born two years and one month after Sarah.  Emma shares Sarah's blonde hair and blue eyes but her personality is quite a bit different.  Emma studies people a long time before she lets them into her circle.  She loves to follow Sarah around but she will not be bossed around.  She likes girly things and loves to be on the go all of the time.  She has a sparkle in her eye and she is usually up to something.
She doesn't seem to be afraid of anything but she will definitely study things before she takes the leap into doing it.  She likes to be active as well and reading can get a little boring so she may need to text someone at the same time.  The other day I got a phone call from Emma and heard her mother in the background asking for her phone. 
She was not the baby of the family long because a year later she became the big sister to Jacob.
Jacob is just sweet and is another blonde hair, blue eyed baby.  I haven't learned a lot about his personality but when we were home last he loved to cuddle.
Since then he has learned to walk and talk and laugh lots and he has also learned to be a big brother to Abigail who was born last week.
Now Sarah, Emma and Jacob all have a baby sister to look after and love who happens to have blonde hair and blue eyes as well.


And Jenn has a full house or should I say Jenn has a full children's shop.

Sarah (4), Abigail (3 days), Emma (2), Jacob (1)
Oh and did I mention that I get to see them all in 3 1/2 weeks so lots of cuddles are on the agenda.
