As we were saying good night to Cassidy that night she said how she called Nana and Nana asked her what she was doing and Cassidy said, "Swinging on my swing". Cassidy has a swing in her room. And as soon as she said that, Keith and I both smiled and realized what an even greater gift it was for both Nana and Cassidy, that Cass was talking to her while on her swing. Just like Alec
The other night, Cassidy went in her room and called Nana Kitty. I could hear her talking to her and realized she was talking to her for at least a half an hour -I think it ended up being close to an hour. And it instantly reminded me of how Alec would call Nana Kitty almost every night while he rode on his swing. I thought how Nana Kitty must have been enjoying this call from Cassidy so much because she has told Keith how much she misses her night time calls from Alec. Alec would sit on his swing down stairs and call Nana Kitty and he would tell her he was on the highway 93, and all the highways and roads they traveled together. She would be home rocking in her chair and travel with Alec on his trips. Al kept her on the phone for a minimum of about 30 min, but had talked to her as long as an hour plus. He always loved swinging on his swing and talking to Nana. He would also rat us out to her when he was annoyed by us. He would say," Nana, Mom is aggravating", or, "Nana, Dad is being aggravating", and "Nana, Ta's not cooperative "(Ta is his special name for Cassidy).
