Family Dept. News



Arian and Jill have packed a lot of living into their time together.

TWO Graduations!
(Accepting their diplomas together.)

TWO Trips to Europe!

TWO Babies Born!

TWO New Hips! (Jill)

TWO Homes Purchased!

But now they are into THREEs.


There will be a THIRD graduation in 2012.

There will definited be a THIRD trip to Europe.

AND . . . there will be a THIRD baby.


THE NEWS - it's a GIRL!

I now have a six-pack of little granddaughters to BOOST my spirits in life!


BTW, here you see my ever-vigilant dog GUARDING the booties for our coming attraction.

Could there be a BOOTIE-THIEF lurking by the dining room table?


Gender is really only one factor here. Truly, my grandkids come in every FLAVOR under the sun! I like being situated two generations up the line and watching their little personalities budding without needing to do anything but thoroughly enjoy them.


Kenneth - With all these girls, are you going to feel like THIS?

Talk to your dad about this. He understands.

Great post Mom! The fact that you will now have 6 granddaughters somehow took my by surprise. It is incredible to think that our family- which once seemed little, is now 14 (well almost) strong! 15 counting Chica (which both of my kids would consider a full member of the family). Wow! Sure love you mom! It is wonderful to experience "joy and rejoicing" in posterity. -Your First Born

SOOOOOO Cute mom :) I love checking your blog and seeing what fun verbal feats you perform. I love the picture of Chica with the boots too.

Oh, grandmother, what big EYES you have. Oh grandmother, what big TEETH you have. Oh, grandmother...

Wait, wait, CUT. Granddaughters are not nutritious! False advertising.

This post is so sweet. Thank you for taking the time to create it. All of these girls (and Kenneth) are fortunate to have such an involved and caring grandma. Thanks for sparking even more excitement for all that the future holds-Arian's schooling and another family member. The shoes are precious-thank you Chica for guarding them! They are absolutely beautiful.
