BEING HEALTHY AND HAPPY FOR THE GRANDKIDS

Published by

I have just returned from the VA after getting a Thyroid tune-up and I want to celebrate that with you all. Even though it wasn’t that big of a deal any operation will tend to get our attention about the Gift of Health. I have been so fortunate to have had good health and according to the doctor that should continue. That means I will be sharing more tips on Grandparents rights as well as expanding out to encouraging each of you to do the things that allow you to spend more time and energy with your grand angels. The picture above was a Father’s day some 5 years ago and I cherish it so much that I am not willing to change the picture even though I no longer have the mustache and my wonderful granddaughter, Ceili,  just called the other day to tell me she had just finished reading another Harry Potter book. My response was, “Wow those books are 500 pages long”. She corrected me and let me know that one was 567 pages.

In the coming months I will be sharing both the good news that some states have finally gotten on board with some significant legislation to help with Grandparents rights as well as some Happy and Healthy tips and information. Until then Thank You for being a Caring Grandparent.
