Introductions

of 2008 (just a little birth grandmothers pride here :)

This is Ashley, my oldest granddaughter - I met her for the first time in 1998 – I am her birth grandmother - unfortunately I have seen little of this lovely young woman – geographical and emotional distance has kept me from knowing her as my heart desires - that I have been fortunate enough to have met her and hear small details of her life – I am grateful - as I write about my grandchildren there will be no – sad – happy – bizarre or comedic stories to tell of Ashley’s life – I have only had the privilege of being in her presence three times since meeting her for the first time eleven years ago – this in no way puts her in a lesser compartment of my heart – she like the all of my grandchildren fill and make my heart happy.

Today I start introducing the subjects of this blog – my grandchildren – I am starting with the oldest, Ashley – the following will introduce Matt, he is my youngest grandson – he is a bundle of cosmic energy and has been and will continue to be a huge source of stories for this blog – I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I am enjoying putting it together.
