    I received a call from Heather's mother in law late night before last asking me if I would like to go to Montana to surprise Heather for Christmas.Of course I wanted to.I didn't tell anyone as it was to be a surprise.Sue just couldn't keep it a surprise as she sent Heather my itinere by e-mail and in the subject line she put Merry Christmas. Heather opened it yesterday morning and when she quit crying she called me to see if I knew about it.I am one of the happiest grandmother in the world.I will fly out Dec.
    10th and come home Jan.6th.

    That is the loveliest present one could wish for for Christmas. Do enjoy it.
    (I can't wait for my grandchildren - I do not have any yet - my eldest is only 22 years and my baby 15)

    I told my husband about your Christmas surprise. He laughed a little because I was so touched that I had tears in my eyes. It's so well deserved, Glenda. Wish I could give you a good-journey-hug.
