our week has been filled with graces... miriam had playdates with both of her friends named grace this week. she spent tuesday at grace r's house, and on friday grace h (and co.) came over, all the way from virginia! we got to see the hemmekes two day in a row, as they are a part of a little overisel reunion that we had yesterday, as well. six of us (that's minus the spouses, though they too are now an integral part of us) have literally known each other since birth and grew up together in the same schools and in the same church. it is rumored that some of us even used to take baths together, though we won't name any names... now that the hemmekes (and soon the pates) live out of state, we try to get everyone together when they are in town. it's always a special time, but this time was extra special because we all brought our kids! what fun to see them all together. so far miriam and grace are the only girls out of the bunch of ten! any day now, though, little girl pate will be joining them. she was actually due to arrive two days ago but has not yet made her appearance. there is also a little harmsen on the way, which we celebrated yesterday with cake and gifts.
