Rainbows at Mimi and Papa’s House – Day 6 – September 1, 2010

[From Mimi Bogle:]

This was Lily’s last day and so we just chilled out together. We did have a friend drop by to visit and again play outside in our water tub. Once again Lily had such a good time with this box that Papa brought back from his office. In the afternoon after she woke up from her nap, I had to go to the grocery store then we went to a local Toy Store where she played all over the place. They had a group of small girls (3-4 year olds) having a tea party. This store was one of Michael’s favorite places when he was little. The location and size of the store has changed through the years but still has the very large train with tracks suspended from the ceiling going all over the store. I have know the owner of this store for many years and she so enjoyed seeing Michael’s child for she remembers him coming in the store with his happy smile. Lily was an angel just flitting all over the store looking at everything and of course smiling and talking. Of course her favorite was all the babies (baby dolls on the shelves and 3-4 year old children) NOT to mention a giant stuffed giraffe which she fell in love with. Now, Lily we were all over the zoo shops looking at all of the animals as well as countless sizes and kinds of giraffes where she refused every one of them, of course after she kissed, hugged and held all the versions. NOW you fall in love with a GIANT giraffe and I do mean GIANT. I had my doubts she would leave the store willingly but she happily did her regal wave bye bye and off we were back to Mimi and Papa’s place. Of course at night when Papa came home she fed the fish and we went to the playground after dinner.

That night Mommy and Daddy came home from their wonderful trip to Aruba but as exciting as it sounded it could not begin to compare to OUR wonderful treasured vacation. We fell in love with this little girl the moment our son came outside the delivery room and proudly announced her name Lily Grace Bogle. Mommy and Daddy you have done such a WONDERFUL job with this sweet HAPPY little girl and we do SOOOOOOOOOOO love being her Mimi and Papa!
