I have a secret to tell you about the power of the vote,
but all you care about is pulling my hair. Oh, well. Maybe later.
Pretty and I were talking about our nine months old granddaughter Ella James yesterday afternoon not just because she was playing in her playpen on our screened porch but also because Pretty said she had been thinking we needed to start making videos of our time with Ella for later on when we might not be here to talk to her in person.
I said I agreed with her – that neither of us was getting any younger and what a great idea it was to make the videos. Actually, I said, I’d also been thinking about the same inspiration, but Pretty has always been the ideas part of our marriage so I happily gave her credit.
However, Pretty and I are much better at thinking about good plans than we are at plan execution so let’s not any of us hold our breaths for those videos.
But Pretty is fabulous with her digital phone camera and takes a ton of pictures like the one above she took yesterday afternoon. I loved the picture. Maybe one day Ella James will see this picture and try to remember what she loved about grabbing my glasses, throwing them on the floor, then pulling my hair. I’m fairly confident she won’t remember my lesson on the importance of voting.
Stay safe, stay sane and stay tuned.

You two look so cute together! Like you’re conspiring together against the grownups haha. Videos would be a fabulous idea! and the photos, yes yes yes. If it helps motivate, the video I have where my grandfather was interviewed by his kids is one of my favorite things. And I was lucky to have him for many years. These days we are “all” older when we have grandkids so it’s not the same. that is IF I get any grandkids :/.

Everytime that angel pulls your hair, tell her she must vote. Who knows … It might become part of her early vocabulary!! 🤔🤣
