Grandchildren

After showing pictures of me holding and visiting with Sadie when the girls came down the other day, it is appropriate to also show Elaine in action. Grandmothers and Great Grandmothers seem to have a special way with babies. And, it's not only confined to babies but in helping youngsters "grow up". And, it sometimes that takes longer than we may expect. All 4 of our kids spent considerable time with their Grandparents which was very positive for their education and maturity. Because of distance, we didn't get to spend as much time as we might have liked with any of our Grandchildren other than Julie. We did have an opportunity to spend some time with Heather and Anna during their time here in Seward. Tim and Tony and I went on a baseball trip when he was a teenager. And, he and Maggie went with us back to Washington, D.C. which were great chances to get to know them better. Grandparents should never miss an opportunity to spend time with their Grandchildren. It may be more valuable to them than money in a 503 account.
