Counting down the days...

I will be leaving Colorado on Saturday. I am preparing myself for the departure! How in the world will I be able to leave this sweet little ladybug of mine?
How will I leave my baby... holding his baby and his ever faithful dog Bo laying right by their side?
How will I leave this new little Mommy, who is a natural at being a new Mom? Kelley is so good with her precious little girl!
Watching her with her baby is so wonderful~
Watching Layla Lynn love her Mommy is so sweet! A pure and simple love!
Can you feel the love?
Last night I went up to my room and found this gift on my bed. It is a frame which reads...

Memories

We don't remember days,
We remember the moments.

In it is the picture I took myself, totally by accident. One of those "wasted" shots where you hold the camera yourself and snap away. I was trying to snap Layla's little face sleeping on my chest. This is the picture I ended up with... her little hand holding onto my cross. I posted the picture on my last post. I was so surprised to find it in this special frame. How very thoughtful of Kelley and Tegan. They understand how I am going to feel on Saturday. They get it~ I will miss them!!

Thank you Tegan and Kelley! You both have made me feel so very welcome in your home ~ Thank You for sharing these first weeks with Layla Lynn with me! I will cherish every "moment" I have had with all three of you! I love my Colorado Lesjaks!

Your colorado Lesjaks are adorable all the way down to Bo ! Kelley and Tegan are such doting parents and their baby Layla reflects that love right back at them.
I love that you have such wonderful memories to "pack" up and take home with you ! Ahhhh, being a gma/Meme is really the best !

I can't imagine how hard will be to leave for home. The good news is that you have all your other gems waiting for you to return. I have a plaque with the same quote on it. Such a beautiful picture. Enjoy your last days.

I do feel the love in the photos of Layla and her Mommy. Love the one with Daddy, Layla and Bo too.

I bet it will be hard to leave... but what a special memory in time to spend the bonding moments together.

ps. I love the photo you took and the message of the frame.
