As we get older-and closer to retirement(we both will be 63)- every little moment you can share with the YOUNG ones-is a memory we store away and hopefully never forget. So in case you do slip a little-and you really have to dig deep to bring them forward- you take pictures to sort of be that memory jogger of life!
How sweet it is! Here we have Cassidy attempting-at least in her strong willed mind-to push Sarah & Taylor down the side walk heading for SWEET FROGS for their promised treat. Notice Taylor has her arm around Cassidy- they are such good little girls.
Cassidy wanted in-but she had second thoughts-she is really strong willed and wanted to get back out and help push again. Sarah on the other hand- no longer the Baby - is enjoying all the attention we can give her! LOL
You just had to be there to understand what was going on. Taylor was crouching down and taking very slow steps-like she was stalking a bird or something-making us all laugh and Ella and Maddy giggle. It was a moment in time that we captured to remember years from now. Priceless to us!
Grandma(Sherry) and all five granddaughter's holding hands crossing the street. They didn't try to break away- they really are good and all will listen to us. It is one of the joys of being grandparents-they respect you and they run to you and give you hugs-brings tears to my eyes to see this moment caught to be reflected on in years to come.
AND I HAVE TO SAY-SHERRY LOOKS YOUNG ENOUGH TO BE THE MOTHER!
When we look back to this picture-we will remember the innocents of youth. Five cousins sharing a young moment together-all of them so precious in each their own way. You know-I am Bias-but it remains to be seen- that this picture will be a favorite of mine forever!
They say a picture says a thousand words- this one says to me "STYLING"!
Ella & Maddy- standing so non chalet- and then there is SARAH- who dress's herself- she will be a model someday-or will set the trends for others! She is our little miss STYLING!
All three are very fast-Maddy set a school record in a test that they did for the school-she would be clocked at a sub 7 min. mile-and she doesn't even practice- this was boys & girls- Ella placed second in her class in the same category's-being beat out by one boy-on the soccer field they both excel-playing CO-ED! And Sarah- have a feeling she will be even faster. I am proud- and this picture in years to come - will remind me just how gifted all three are! And all three are at the top of their class in academics!
Cassidy & TaylorBeing grandparents is both a joy and a blessing. Our lives are so much richer and we have God to thank that they all are healthy-loving-bright-and funny children. I posted this blog today-as a way for me to remember how they look and what I think the future awaits each and every one of them If I show Bias- then be it what it may-because I AM THAT for sure. This is my little journal on our lives- we are happy to share with you-I wish that I could know you out there who follow this from 10 different countries- I would love to see and hear and read about your lives. Send me a message-let us break news over the net and become friends. This is my family-our lives and the women I share it with -30 years in June-31 that we have been together. A journal of our love for each other and a memory to be shared across time and space.
