I have returned after an absence due to illness. I promise you I have not lost my zeal for Grandparents Rights and the contribution that makes to our Grand kids.
This weekend, I was privileged to watch my ever-accomplished Granddaughter perform in a stage production of Legally Blonde. I am in awe of this skilled, competent, and talented 13-year-old girl doing what would strike fear in most adults and doing it so very well.
The best part is that she sent me a text a couple weeks ago so I could plan the 7+ hour trip.
My connection to this particular Granddaughter is due to me practicing every thing I say in these posts and my books. I have worked diligently to be a part of her life and it has paid off in spades.
More to come!
