Aw, Janice, this is lovely. I love it when you bring in your wider family and your road trips and your work. You have so much to write about. But I have to say, the older I get, the more intensely I believe that life is ALL about family. And if we don't have one, we must build one from friends and strangers.
I am already looking for a house with a guest house in the event anyone wants to come live with Granny as a young adult. Close enough to Mom and Dad, yet their own little place. Dare I dream :)
Not every grandmother has the opportunity to know her grandchildren as well as I have, and I cherish every minute of those years. Read more . . .
It’s nice to be a close family

How lovely to have much of your family near you. And what a wonderful story about your grandson.
It would be wonderful.

What a wonderful thing, Janice! Those little boys were so fortunate to have you close!
