Today, Grammy Barb and Papa Dave had to say goodbye to little "Leo" as it was time to get back in the car and head for home. Now keep in mind that Leo is only 11 days old today so he surely does not understand our unkind "abandonment" and even more heartbreaking is the "emotions worn on the shoulders of these 2 adults above.
Can someone please come and counsel poor Grammy Barb & Papa Dave so they won't go straight home and lock themselves up in the bedroom...actually, we are both doing just fine. We have only spoken to Amy and the baby 4 times today and we made it all the way from Austin, Texas to Amarillo, Texas. And it only took us a little over 9 hours to get here. This state is so large, it is like the Bermuda Triangle. Once you are in it, it seems impossible to find your way out (of Texas, that is). But I have a plan to get up before the sun tomorrow and sneak across the New Mexico border before the Texans even realize we have gone. Brilliant, huh?
Anyway, we are on our way home, already developing plans to return or have them out to Arizona by October so I believe that Grammy Barb and Papa Dave will actually survive (not without your prayers, of course). So as this chapter ends a new one will begin and Grammy or Papa will be sure to be there to share it with you all.
Thanks for your love and prayers for our little "Leonardo Steven Pitera" who has gained over 1/2 pound in his first 11 days in captivity (Yeah)!
I am absolutely certain that the pictures will continue to "flow" so be looking for them. (by the way, little Leo is the one being hugged and kissed on in both of the pictures above. Those other two are "nanny help" just ignore them.
