My first Mother's Day as a Grandma

Mother's Day was eventful for the Call's. The long awaited Missionary phone call to Mom took place on Saturday.....and the traveling call went off as planned with out a hitch.....we even had a few unexpected hellos form other family members. According to Elder Call's letter he thought only my family would do this when we told him what was going to happen.... At our first stop he not only got to speak with Megan and Grandpa Lyle and Grandma Sheri, but he also got a hello from Aunt Angela and cousins Preston, Laila, Jenna, Landon Addison and his girlfriend Bree. The 20 minutes for Mom and Dad alone were great. At the Theatre we arrived to a big film mess....of course there was a problem, making int difficult for the brothers to talk with him, but they did eventually speak with him. Captain Awesome squawked at the phone(that is his latest form of communication he makes a squawk that sounds like a large bird or what we think a dinosaur would have sounded like). J, L and hay all got a a few quick minutes as did Grandpa Bill and Grandma Mary. We had been on the phone for about an hour and he had to go to church but he said let me talk to my mom. I wondered if it was something confidential, but he said no he just wanted to make sure that I felt like I had had enough time with him on the phone since it was the mother's day phone call. Overall he sounded happy. From what we got out of him he is a great missionary who is willing to work hard and do what is asked of him.

Sunday was also a nice day...we had dinner with the family and visited with Grandma's Mary and Sheri, wishing them a happy day.

Life is always changing, even when it seems to be the same from day to day. After 28 years of being a mother I think that it's good to be a mother/grandmother!
