I arrived home for lunch today, walked in and heard Donné saying to the children, “Go and tell daddy what’s happening for lunch.” Two hyper children come running down the stairs shouting excitedly and Grace says, “Daddy! Your mommy and daddy are coming for lunch!” What?!? Eli lifts up his arms and calls out, “Bobo, Damps!”

My folks came down for a last minute arranged meeting which fortunately finished early giving them enough time to come by for a surprise lunch. We met and Woolworths, and before we left Donné asked Grace what she was going to have for lunch. Grace thinks a bit and then suddenly her eyes widen and literally light up, “Sushi!”

We had a brief but lovely time, which ended with both Grace and Eli sad that they had to go. In Eli’s words, “More Bobo, Damps.”
