Grandchildren


After our children, grandchildren are our most incredible journey. I was present at the birth of 3 of our grandchildren and helped bring both of my daughter's babies into the world. Tiny little lives so full of energy, loudly protesting their transition into a new environment. They steal your heart and keep it forever, and it is given over gladly.

I have been fortunate to have always been physically and emotionally close to "our gang", now ranging from 15 to 2 years in age. What delightful individuals they are...smart, funny, unique and still possesed with that amazing energy. They are love and laughter, imagination and discovery and they are one of the reasons I want to win my war.

Love and thanks to: Paige and Sarah (Doodlebug and Shortcake), Emily and Ryan (The Emster and The Rye guy) and Alex (Big Al).

Always, Mimi (Spike)

PS One of my ggrandfathers was one of the Green Mountain Boys. Wasn't that in the Green Mountains of Vermont?--at the time of the Revolutionary War?
