I have company

My own grandkids are teens. My nephew and his family came to visit from out West. While they're here, they went to the Sonic Temple Music Festival in Columbus, Oh. and visited other relatives. My sister was supposed to watch his young daughter, but it didn't work out, so she is staying with me. My out of town daughter is visiting with me, and it's a joy watching these 2 interact. My daughter is really good about sending Christmas and birthday presents, but they haven't met face to face before now. I've only met my great-niece once before, and I'm glad this is a pleasant few days for all of us. I don't feel a need to be bossy or be the entertainment director. She's doing a fine job running the show! Lol
