Robert comes to visit

This past weekend Robert came to visit his sick Mom. Marie was a champ--she had all five of their children while he was here. I appreciated his visit and her sacrifice so much. It was so nice to see him. I made his favorite raviolis and chocolate chip cookies the day he came. It seemed like old times to see him draped in front of the fridge door. He found the ravs right away. They didn't even last 24 hours.
He wanted to wash cars and pull weeds (probably not quite as much as we wanted him to wash cars and pull weeds), but it rained the whole time he was here. He did give Lon a break from dish duty. We were so impressed with his skills. Lon called me to the kitchen to admire the neatly stacked dishes that were drying.
Alan and Ellen came to dinner on Sunday and Robert helped me make maca before church. When the boys get together it seems like they can just pick up from the last time they were together. On Friday while we were at the temple Alan took Robert to Costco and they got the movie "Driving Miss Daisy." They knew it was the last picture that was rated PG to garner Best Picture at the Academy Awards. How do they know all that random stuff????? If I ever need a lifeline for a game show.........
