Granny Mize came to visit

Today my mother is 82 years old. She gave herself a birthday gift, she drove up from Georgia to see her great-grandchildren. The first photo is when she held Noah Daniel for the first time. He was one week old.
The second photo is the following day. For this visit he did not wake up but we still enjoyed holding him and inspecting him real good.
The last photo is with Mason. He is now 16 months old and he didn't sit still very long for a photo session with his Great-Granny.
She also visited with her grandchildren,
but I think her main interest was in their children this time.
She returned to Stone Mountain on Monday.

What a wonderful visit. It's good she can still drive. I bet you took lots of four generation shots, too.

How wonderful! I wish I could have known my great-grandparents. Or even grandparents!

I can just see the joy in her eyes.
Both of the boys are as cute as can be!

A very special moment. Your photos are incredibly sweet and it's lovely meeting your Mom. You can tell by her smile how much love she has for her grandchildren. Thanks Leedra, super photographs.

Leedra, I think someone else may have said it - "priceless." These photos are a great way to celebrate one's family history. And thanks for sharing it with all of us.

Oh look at that, I'm following my mom in the comments :)

Your mother is so beautiful Leedra! Her face looks like she has so many tales to tell :) And bless her heart for heading off to see the great-grand children as a present to herself. She looks so happy with them.
