I guess I haven't said much about Justin, he's the new boyfriend and Emma seems quite smitten.  I was talking to Pam a little while ago and she was telling me that tonight she and Ian, Malcolm's brother,  are going to a nice restaurant in Cedar Falls, Texas Roadhouse and that is where Justin works.  Justin told Emma that he will give them a double order of their delicious bread when they come in because he is working tonight.   Last night Emma was out with Malcolm and two of his friends, not sure what they did but there she was with 3 boys.  I asked Pam who Emma would have for a bridesmaid if she ever marries, she really only has BOY FRIENDS. I asked Emma the other day if Justin is upset when Malcolm comes over to her house, he does quite often, and Emma says Justin knows Malcolm and the other boys are her friends.   Emma has always preferred being with boys over girls.  She doesn't like all the silly stuff that goes on with so many girls, maybe the drama, I don't but she sure marches to the beat of a different drummer.  I forgot about Cody, he's another friend and now he works with Emma and she sees him too.  He's such a nice boy.  They are all nice but such an odd situation.

I don't think you told us about this Justin although you did mention another male friend of Emma's but it was friend only a while ago ?  Good for Emma anyway :) I remember you have told us before how Emma has lots of male friends. I was the same till I went to boarding school. No boys then except the Altar boys and boys from the local grammar school  ;D  Emma is one of the boys :)
Good for Aussie Emma working still through this virus :)

I have a little more story about Emma.  After she and Ian ate last night she brought Ian home, he doesn't have a car so Emma drove.  Anyway, Pam said after Emma had been home a little while here came Malcolm.  She had invited him over to play some video game they both love AND Malcolm now has blue hair.  His mother dyed it for him yesterday.  Awhile ago the doorbell rang and it was Emma and Justin, they were going bowling and the bowling alley is over by me so they stopped in to say hello.  Justin is very quiet but he makes an effort to talk to me which is nice.

I think it's great that Emma has so many male mates, she doesn't like the bitchiness of girls, which stands her very well, don't you think? I don't believe you have mentioned Justin, but as long as we know now. Its always lovely when you have a surprise visit from your grand children.

 I had my Justin and his girlfriend Chloe pop in to see me on Monday, they both had the day off work. Then on Tuesday Christene popped in with the beautiful Arlie, who has now taken several step and id getting more steady each day now. I then received a phone call from Alex last night to ask Puppy and I over to see the new house they moved into the other weekend, I will get to see the terror, Zurie So it has been a good week.

You have had a good week and I forgot that Robert is Puppy, that's cute!!  Do you like Alex's girlfriend and are they serious? I don't think I know what Alex is doing, for that matter, what is Justin doing?  Are they still in college or working?  If little Arlie is starting to walk then it won't be long and she will be running and Christene will be chasing.   Oh no,  Zurie the terror is coming to your house.  Do you have to move things so she doesn't get into what you don't want her into?  You are lucky to have so much family and the fact they are near enough to  you so they can pop in.    You are such a good grandma to all of them.  Robert is Puppy, are you just Grandma then?

Alex is married to Sammi and they are Zurie's parents. We will be going to their place, not here at mine, so all my things will be safe for a while longer and yes, I usually move things when I know Zuries is coming Alex puts in shower screens and wardrobes, he has been busy and Justin is a concreter and works with Christene's Billy. Justins girlfriend is Chloe, who is a hairdresser apprentice, I don't mind her :) Zurie calls me 'mema' and no doubt Arlie will as well.

Have Alex etc moved any closer to you and Robert then ? I was thinking the other day I have to ask if Zurie is walking yet ,,, if she is anything like Greta she will be running everywhere !
Malcolm is making a statement with his blue hair, love it :0

Mema is cute, maybe all of your great grandchildren will call you that.  I did forget that Alex is Zurie's dad, duh.......I guess we talk about Sammi more and I forgot Alex, HOW RUDE OF ME.   It sounds like both boys have good jobs so that's nice.

Zurie is two now, so yes she is walking and running around being a holy terror. Arlie is 11 months now and has just started to walk and each day she is getting stronger at it. Alex and Sammi live in between where her mum lives and Belinda, so not that close to me. Actually it's is the same suburb where my mum once lived.

Yes Arlie is walking and I have just put a video of her taking a few steps. I also put up a video of Zurie today. They are both so beautiful, but so different :)

I will go to FB and look too when I get done.  When you say they are both beautiful but different, do you mean looks or their personalities?

Personalities, Zurie is a wild child, while Arlie is quieter. It will be interesting so see how they develop and grow up together :)
