Today we celebrated Nanny's 93rd Birthday! Yes, you read that right - 93 years old! Can you believe that!?! Crazy! I can't imagine living to 93 but she did it and does it well. Nanny is the sweet person. She is always so sweet and caring. She always makes sure that she has something nice to say whether it be - I like your dress, I like your hair, your kids are so good, you dress them so cute, whatever - she always makes sure she says something nice to make you feel good. She also loves the kids SO much. You can just see her sit there and watch them with a smile on her face. You can just tell by watching her that she just loves being there with them and watching them all so happy and healthy. She really is a special person and I am so grateful that my children have gotten to know her. I mean how many children get to know there great-grandmother especially when she is 93 years old. She loves them dearly and they really love her as well. If we haven't seen her in a while they ask about her. Blakely knows that Nanny likes shoes so if she ever gets new shoes she can't wait to show Nanny! She always says as we are buying them - "I think Nanny will like these!" So sweet! Drew also cares very much for her. He doesn't often show his emotions around her - rather he acts kind of shy around her but when we are away from her he speaks of her often. He always wants to know what she is doing?, is she at home?, what is she eating? can we go to her house?, etc... He always tells us if we pass her house on our daily travels around town and when she was in the hospital -- he was REALLY concerned and asked and asked about her. He was very upset about his Nanny being sick and when she would come home. If you ask them about her they will talk and talk so if you have a minute ask them about their Nanny and you will love what you hear! Happy Birthday Nanny! We love you!
