BIG surprise and GREAT News!
« on: June 09, 2017, 10:17:31 pm »
Youngest daughter sent us a gift box this week.
Contents were framed sonogram and kids' book titled, "My Grandpa is NOT Grumpy".
Latest grandbaby's eta is mid-November!
We are kinda thrilled.     ;)
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Great news Mike! Congrats to the whole family.
