Every day gets better.....

Lovin' those fish-n-chips!
Chicken is his favorite thing to eat right now.


My, how he's changed in just a short time!

This weekend Beryl and I were shopping in a second hand store, (LOVE THOSE!), and I came across a book called "Call me Grandma". It is full of the most beautiful little poems about being a grandma, and I had to have it! The sweet little old man just gave it to me after watching me read through it, and wiping tears from my eyes. The author was from Kansas, and is gone from this earth now, but I've no doubt she left her family knowing how much she loved them.
What a gift she had for words, and I will be sharing some of her writing with you from time to time. Her name was Nova Trimble Ashley, and I will be looking for more of her books! I hope her words touch your heart as much as they have touched mine.

Somebody Loveable

Somebody loveable
Precious and sweet,
With soft dimpled fingers
And kissable feet,
Somebody beautiful
Helpless and wee
Made a most doting
Grandmother of me!

And with that, dear friends, I must leave you for tonight, and rest up for another day of Heaven on earth with my very busy little man. Let me hear from you all, and don't forget the 3 most precious words to your loved ones ears: I LOVE YOU.

About Me

My heart is filled with faith in God, and love for my family and friends. I am in love with a fabulous man who shares in my joy of being the mother of H, and the grandma of J.

I never get enough of my little love bug!
If there must be strife, let it be in MY day, that this child may know peace.
