Please pray for a safe trip for my 8 and 10 year old daughters and my parents. They are all headed up to New York City for the weekend. It should be a wonderful trip - seeing all the sights and taking in Mary Poppins on Broadway. (Frankly, I'm jealous! )
But you know all those nagging worries that hit you when your children are off traveling without you. And, unfortunately, we are expecting really cold, rainy weather again for their drive up Friday, and temperatures in the teens and low twenties during their stay.
Thank you!

Oh dear, Irene, I'm too late. Have the children returned home safely now with delicious stories of their weekend in the big city?

Yes, thank you for asking, Jennifer! And thank you all for your prayers for the trip.
They got back last night and had a wonderful time. Along with seeing Mary Poppins, which they loved, they did a back stage tour of Radio City Music Hall, saw the Christmas decorations at Rockefeller Center, and visited American Girl Place. They walked everywhere and it was freezing, so I'm really glad that I remembered to have them pack their long johns at the last minute. They ended with Sunday Mass at St. Patricks Cathedral celebrated by Cardinal Egan and met him on the way out.
I appreciate my parents so much for doing things like this. My middle girls will have wonderful memories of this weekend with them to treasure. I hope to be that kind of Grandma someday!

I was praying, Irene...with great emotional attachment! One of my very favorite childhood memories was going to NYC for a show and shopping and meal during right before Christmas. I can still see Rockeller Square and the ice skaters, and smell the street vendors roasting chestnuts, and feel my toes freezing from all the walking! I'm sooooooooooooo happy all went well.
(You are going to be a great grandmama someday for sure.)
Love,
