Before Anna Tyler was born, it was mentioned to me that Ben and Tracy might need a traveling babysitter the first weekend in October. My heart was delighted at the possibility of having this opportunity. They had been asked to sing at Drew Belk's wedding and having a new baby would mean someone would need to help out. They didn't have to twist my arm a bit. I was happy and excited to go along for the ride.
Dyersburg, Tennessee is quite a distance from Helena, Alabama. We left out at 7:30 am Friday, October 3 and arrived in Dyersburg around 3:00 pm. Now, you must remember we have a baby that needed to be fed, changed, and time to stretch out along the way. I must tell you, she traveled very well. Other than the occassional fussiness that all babies have, she enjoyed her trip.
It was fun to watch Ben and Tracy parent during the day and throughout the night. They are both champs! And, of course, having the opportunity to "Grandparent" for three days was amazing. I drank in all of those precious baby moments for all they were worth, because as we all know, those times get away from us all too quickly.
