visit with Katherine

OH MY!!! That's about all I could say. The day before Mother's day my son called and wanted to know if I was going to be home. I told him I had some errands to run, and he ask if I would wait a few minutes, he needed to run by and show me something. A few minutes later I heard the screen door open and running up the steps, I thought it was Hunter and Chris, but when I turned around to look there stood the most precious sight I've seen!!! Our grand-daughter that we had not seen in 3 yrs. It took my breath and I started crying, Katherine ran and jumped up in my arms, hugged me and said, "grand-ma I sure have missed you" I looked at my son who was standing in the doorway of the kitchen with tears in his eyes. I'm still not sure just why her mother agreed and I'm not going to ask, I think my prayer was answered that God softened her heart. We had a great visit and for the first time I had all three of my grandchildren in the same room. I took lot's of pictures which I will get put on here asap. Wayne wasn't home when they got here, but when he walked in the door, Katherine ran and jumped up in his arms, saying , "papaw, papaw I love you." We didn't want to let her go and I told her that we all wanted to see her and be a part of her life. I think she really started asking her mother why she couldn't see us and her mother had no answer to give her.
Katherine kept rubbing my face and telling me she loved me. I wondered if she thought she might not get to come back. I'm happy to say that Chris is getting her for a few hours everyother weekend. Her mother even ask if maybe I could watch her a couple of days a week since I no longer have a job. Keep in prayer that will happen. God is so good!!!!!
