Taking 2 of my grandkids up to the prison to see their Daddy, my oldest son. (the 5 yr old little boy does not understand that his Daddy is in prison, he just thinks he is on a special top-secret work assignment. Yeah, he will find out soon enough, but it works for him right now. His 10 yr old sister knows, though.)

Anyway, I took them up, like I do once a month, and just to see them all interacting is just so sweet to me. My son gets to be silly with his kids, they all get to hug on each other, my son gets to read to them, we absolutely stuff ourselves silly with the foods from the vending machines. Tues is his 41st birthday, and so today we shared an extra special treat from the machines today, strawberry shortcake!

Well, my son did some kind of sleight of hand with his son, and pretended that he was able to "float" in the air. My grandson actually BELIEVES, with a Capital B. He thought his Daddy was something pretty cool anyway, but NOW, I mean WOW.

These visits are always so very bittersweet. I hate that he is there, that he has to be away from his life and his family for so long. But as I sit there, watching him with his kids, and look around at all the other inmates visiting with their loved ones and just making do for one more day, and I hear the squeals of laughter from my grandbabies, my heart feels blessed.
