Fun Times

Sometimes when the grandchildren visit, we have quiet times sitting on Grandpa's lap. . .
Watching the street crew in front of our house replacing the street slab by slab. . .

Brett praying and . . .
Reading so well from his Rhyming Bible. . . .
Painting snakes. . . .
and flower pots.

But sometimes things get a little crazy like when the grandchildren play Wii. . .
When Libby breaks into her stream of conscious song, "The Bunny and the Butterfly". . .
When we go on "excursions". . .
Play in Grandma's pool. . .
When they wrestle and when. . . .



They just make each other laugh! Brett, Davis, Roman, Libby, Eli, Anna---you bring such richness to our lives---we are blessed.

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
