  • While my granddaughter was visiting we (my husband and I) made sure we had "High Tea" at least once.  We ordered our "tea" with tea sandwiches and a scone instead of with cookies.  Oddly enough Trin didn't like the scones . . . too dry.  But then she didn't lather on any of the clotted cream on her scone like I did on mine, so no wonder hers was a little dry.  They had the cutest little tea cup and saucer for Trin while we adults had much larger cups.  Now I'm just wondering how much she'll actually remember of this, because I know how very few memories I have from when I was 3 or 4 years old, although I do remember a few brief glimpses from that time.

  • I love having High Tea...but there is nowhere in our little village that does that!  Had a marvelous adventure at tea with my daughter in MN!  What a nice experience for all of you and I bet the little one does remember

  • I love having tea.  It's so ladylike... perhaps you should make that a tradition, so that no matter when she starts having memories of it, it will always be there.  Kinda like with my great grandma, Mama Crawford.  I remember walking a dirt road and picking daisies with her, but I don't remember when it started.  I just remember that we did.  That was our thing when I visited her in the summers.  Now she's gone, but I remember that about her more than anything else we ever did.   :heartbeat:

  • I agree, she'll remember. Maybe not consciously, but a part of her will always know that Grandma Christine took her for tea (and all the other fun things you did together). And what a great thing to do! I'll have to file that away for when my granddaughter gets a little bit older.

  •  :heartbeat:With all of the fabulous photos you have for her, I am sure she will remember! Besides it looks like you had so much fun with her that it would be hard for her to forget! I know that my son has great memories of his times spent with his grandma and he remembers them even though he sees her all the time!

  • What fun! Mike

  • Like everyone says, if Trin has the photos, and she will, she will remember it and all the other fun things you did together that week. That's such a sweet picture. I love the look on both your faces.  :sunny:
