Years ago, I used to hang with my Bragie & Papa alot! I loved being their third wheel. I had more fun with them then I did with my friends sometimes. I knew my time with them was limited and I cherished every moment of it. Often, we'd "Go for fish." with their good friends, John & Alice, at the VFW in New Lenox. Well, I quickly grew to love John & Alice and formed a friendship of my own with them. And then through our Pre-Cana, John did, too. Unfortunately, we don't get together with them enough, but tonight we did--at our favorite spot for Fish.
Mrs. Ficker (Alice) gave Lola two gifts--a little red Corvette (that she loved!) and an awesome new board book about Shapes (our favorite topic.)
80 years old. Almost 60 years married. 7 children. Countless Grand-children. And their first Great Grand-child on the way. To be this blessed...Take this kid anywhere and she's a perfect angel--the entire meal.
A new favorite, french fries.
Hugs for John before we leave.
And a happy little monkey on the way home.
