turning corners


Spring invigorates me – I love the azaleas, dogwoods, climbing roses, the new tree leaves with their hesitation to turn green, putting our frog log in the pool for the first frogs that need to learn to avoid the chemically treated water, the hum of the bees buzzing the blossoms, washing the pollen from the seat covers on the porch – well, maybe I don’t really love the pollen that comes with the colors of spring. I’ve gone too far.

But this spring I have especially enjoyed my days with Pretty and our granddaughter Ella who was 18 months old on April 1st. Did you ask if I had pictures?

Ella and Pretty relaxing in our front yard – with azaleas and dogwoods in the background. Nothing better than having your own chair.

I know you’re taking my picture

I love my new jump suit but am not a fan of the shoes

This Nana takes way too long to find my music

What did I just say about shoes?

Whatever your season, Pretty and I send warmest wishes from our home to yours for staying safe, getting vaccinated, and taking a moment to smile at this child who is embracing a brave new world where she now works very hard to find her words to tell us what she thinks about it.

Please stay tuned.

        Yes, I can see that! She makes me feel like that just from the photos of her that I’ve seen. I wouldn’t mind having a grandchild (hint to my kids haha)!

        Oh, I hope you have a grandchild or two! I really had no concept of what we were going to have with this little girl. Her dad was 15 when Pretty and I got together so all I have seen of him as a little boy this age are in pictures. Too fun, Luanne. Fingers crossed for you, too!

    With your Beautiful Spring list, you had me right up until washing the pollen office porch chairs.

    I did that at Casa Bob y Carlos yesterday so I could enjoy the outdoors blooming and greening.

      I know, right? Mother Nature never lets us have it all at the same time…

      Thanks so much!! We are so lucky to be with her before she gets too grown up to want to be with her Nanas.
