When we were up in Idaho a while ago we stayed with Jon's Grandpa Wirkus. He was so sweet to let us crash there and was such a great host! This is the same Grandpa that sealed us in the temple about 5 1/2 years ago. So he holds a very special place in our hearts. We love him so much and it is so fun to visit his house because he has "Kegs" of Huckleberry ice cream. (if you haven't tried it you are totally missing out!!!)
Anyways....Every morning he goes on a 3-6 mile walk and while we were there he would always rush to get home so that he could feed Shelby her bottle in the morning. It was so cute! His eye sight is failing him and when he would feed her, he would poke her in the eye and nose with the bottle until they both finally reached Shelby's mouth. Well Shelby was in heaven with Grandpa Wirkus, he played games with her and sang to her as he fed her each morning. It was so precious the way that she would just stare up at him and smile and giggle. I think Gramps liked it too. I had forgotten about the pictures that we had taken and just ran across them and so I had to share this memory with everyone.
