Emily had a wonderful visit and found Elijah a real treasure. She also enjoyed having time to visit Josh and Elizabeth. She kept Elijah several times so that Elizabeth could work on finishing touches for the last edition of Gene's book. She also got up early with Elijah and had breakfast with him so that Elizabeth could sleep in. He always asked for his yogurt and cheerios for breakfast. Sometimes he had an egg. After they had breakfast the two of them would play with his cars and read stories or work puzzles. Of course with a G-MaMa around you might end up playing hide'n seek or climbing a tree (with some help) or even running races around the yard or up and down the hallway.
Emily and Elizabeth enjoyed going to the fabric shop The Quilting Bee, and to the nursery. Emily was fascinated with the Sycamore trees growing all over the place in San Jose.
On her return she had a nice opportunity to visit with Sarah and Ryan Fetz and they showed her their first ultrasound picture of their 9 week baby! It looks like he or she will be born in mid October.
Emily left her phone in San Diego when she left to come home. Elizabeth was really concerned. Steve and Lynn were concerned about how she would know any phone numbers to call. But she did just fine. She borrowed a flight attendants phone on the plane and she even knew Steve's phone number (I don't) I have him on speed dial. Then once she got to Atlanta, she borrowed someone else's phone and got in touch with him. When she and Steve missed connecting at a pre-arranged place she just went on the to the luggage pick up and waited for him there. It all worked out real fine. We all know how resourceful she is; sometimes we just have to be reminded.
