I've Waited Too Long To Post More

OK..it's now March 24th 2013 and so much has gone on since I last posted!
Grandkids: Stephanie, Alixe, Ricky and Marshall (along with Nick & Beau)!
Wow! Great grandkids: Shepherd, Josephine, Jonah and Sullivan; in that order.

With our Grandchildren, Alixe was left out of most all of daylight outdoor activities, after finding out
that she had XP. I have wished so, so many times that she could have been involved with all of the
festivals, parades and Fair activities that Harold & I used to work. Stephanie used to help us sell
balloons at parades and work festivals with us. Sometimes we would take Ricky to festivals with us, but Harold died before Marshall was born. Alixe's outdoor fun was the minute the sun went down.
I've also often wished that Harold had lived long enough to meet Alan (Stepanie's husband) and David (Alixe's husband), he would have really liked them both. They are prime examples of what a
fine young man should be, especially with their wives and children. The great-grandchildren would have had Harold in the palm of their hands.
Being allowed to live long enough to watch my grandchildren grow into adults (Marshall will be
16 in October), has been so rewarding. I have learned so much from them. The extra treat has
been to see my great grandchildren enter this earth, watch them as they learn, play, and forge ahead.

Also watching as their parents raise them in God's way. Above photo: Stephanie, Alan and Shepherd
