Forgive me everyone, I am still learning how to do all this blogging, uploading, downloading, and trying to learn a whole new computer vocabulary. I just posted my title, how dumb is that. Anyway let's get to what I want to talk about.
It dawned on me this morning that I too am growing up. As I was thinking about my family, I realized that my grandchildren have all of a sudden become
adults. I realized this for the inane reason that two of them have acquired
dogs. They are becoming family units all on their own. In fact two of my granddaughters are either becoming
mothers or are mothers. So that makes me a great grandmother. Araya is almost two and exceptionally beautiful and Zoey will join us in November. It is hard to believe because I don't feel a bit different than I did when I was 30 (with the exception of a few stiffing joints). I have enrolled in a Yoga, Cardiac something class at the local Y to hopefully alleviate this condition.
My
grandchildren are each unique in their own ways and of course very talented people. I am so proud of all of them. I read a sad story in the news this morning about a mother that could not let go of her son and in the process was about ready to destroy his marriage. A big part of being a mother, grandmother, great grandmother is the letting go.
I realized a few years ago that I was putting all of myself either into my work or my family. I decided it was time to develop a life. I have been doing that and having a great time. I volunteer at Open Studios, an organization that develops art and artists in Boulder, I started cooking at Family in Christ Church, and volunteering at both the Erie Chamber of Commerce and the Rotary Club. I am even learning how to play
bocce ball!
Life is good, children are great, and grand children are even better. You need to love them with all your being and hold them close to your heart as you let them go to build their own life and famly. Have an incredible day and let's see if I can up load the two pictures of the newest members of our family: Penelope Ann, a labradoodle and Dexter Bebop Roos (a minature daschound). Now lets get on with this
Adventure Called Life.
