A Visit With Leighton


We made a trip to Abilene recently to visit with Leighton Grace. We met Jordan and Ashley for church at Southern Hills (what beautiful singing that morning) and then had lunch from Sharon's Barbeque. It was delicious, especially a jalapeno corn dish that they make. Yum!

It had been a while since we had last seen Leighton and she is changing fast! Ashley is so good to keep us updated through phone messages and videos so we knew that she is making a lot of changes. We were amazed though when we saw how much bigger she is in person!. She is like this little chunk of muscle! She is solid and active. She loves her bed and enjoys going from one end to the other! We spent the afternoon visiting with Jordan and Ashley and playing with Leighton and Lacey (the dog!). It was a quick trip and we plan to go back soon. Time changes everything, so quickly, and it reminds us of the old saying we once had in our nursery : Cleaning and scrubbing can wait til tomorrow, for babies grow up much to our sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs, dust go to sleep. I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep!
