This one is for Monty!

As most of you know we lost my Dad about a year and a half ago, and he is greatly missed everyday, but as anyone who has lost a loved one will tell you, there are little things in your day that will strike you with recogition of that person or flood you with a heart stopping memory. I have those moments frequently with Reed, probably because I know how much my dad loved his grandsons and how much he wanted Reed to give me back everything I gave to him times 10!

My most recent moment was over Memorial Day weekend when Reed and I were making one of our Grandma trips. As Reed is so proud of, we were going to see TWO Grandma Thompsons! Mine and his! So we are driving along and he is watching his movie and one of my friends calls so I answer and talk with her for a short time (Really, maybe 10 min!) and Reed says from the backseat. "Mommy, STOP talking! Talking TOO MUCH!!!" I just had to laugh because I could just see my dad's smirking grin!
