Papaw Today

I went over and spent the day with Mom and Papaw today. He's doing pretty well. When it got to be close to time to go get the girls from school, I just asked him if he wanted to ride over there with me to get them. I never dreamed he'd say yes.. but he did.

He wasn't dressed up to go visiting, but once he got outside where it was so pretty he took the visiting bug. He said if it's nice tomorrow he'd like for me to go get him and take him out to see family he's not seen in a while. I told him I'd be there, he stressed though, "If it's pretty." *laughs* He doesn't wanna be out in the car with me if it's raining.

On our way back from picking up the girls, we stopped and got an ice cream at Dairy Queen, and that lady piled it on.. I swear, if they weren't a foot tall, they weren't an inch.. I never saw cones that big before. He had it all over his face, his chin, he looked like a big kid. Mik and Mal got a kick out of that. We brought Mom back a banana split, but I don't know if she ever ate it or not.. I think it was pretty much melted before we got it home to her.
