Julie and Carolyn came to visit this afternoon along with Sadie and Jack. It had been a while since they had been here because of the flu so we really enjoyed seeing all of them. It doesn't take very long for playthings to get pulled out of the cabinet. Some of Jack's trucks and tractors have a place with the stuffed animals and are left out for "decoration". We are so fortunate to have Great Grandchildren living near us where we can watch changes occur in their development. They are both more "mature" every time we see them. CBS National News had a story this evening on a Father sending postcards to his children every day for the past several years. It was his way of letting them know of his love for them.
I hope that my writing this blog has some of the same effects. It is a way of letting family, especially those who live away from here, know that we are doing O.K. and that we are thinking of them. Our generation has never felt as comfortable in expressing our love of family members as is done by younger people. That doesn't mean that we don't have very strong feelings for our kinfolks but are less likely to express them. Maybe this frequent blog page can help carry the message.
