First Communion

 We returned to Kansas City a few weeks after Easter for our grandson's First Communion.
 He looked so handsome! We filled a pew with an assortment of siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.
 We were so proud of him when he got up to read.
 He did a wonderful job! Davis was so lucky to have had a brand new priest who had such enthusiasm for this special event.
 It was fun to see all of the kids that we have met over the past 5 years at soccer games, basketball games.
 Here are Brett, Libby (siblings), and Davis with their cousins Will and Elaina.

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.
