Agnes’ grandmother (on her dad’s side) came back to Irvine to stay with Agnes’ parents this past weekend. We headed down there on Sunday to visit, and to introduce the girls to her. Agnes’ grandmother is 95 years old, and though she had eight children of her own, she does not strike one as the type to be enthusiastic about babies. We were quite pleasantly surprised when she started making clucking noises at them, picking them up to hold, and sharing her own experiences in raising kids. She had fraternal twin girls of her own (two of Agnes’ aunts). It was quite amazing to see.
She wasn’t quite dressed as she would like for photos, so we’ll have to settle for posting this picture of her hand reaching out to Miranda. Both of the girls were quite fascinated with her.
