Finally taking the plunge


Well I finally decided to take the plunge and start me a blog! I read others blogs all the time and have really found some good ones; and have wanted to start one for the longest time now. So here goes....

My blog will be mostly about my precious grandchildren. Since they are the light of my life. The reason i get up in the mornings! And oh that is so hard for me to type grandchildren versus grandbabies. See my two oldest are now six already. They are Jacob and Myles. Then there is Katie who is four and Grace who is five. Then there is my youngest and maybe my last grandbaby, Caleb and he is two, so I can technically still call him a baby. But don't let him hear that, he thinks he is as old as the rest of them! And buddy he can keep up with them in a heartbeat too! He is tough as they come. Gives the phrase 'All Boy' a new meaning. Blonde blue-eyed angel. Can ya tell he tugs my heartstrings.

Jacob, Katie, and Caleb are brothers and sister. They belong to my daughter Amy. Myles and Grace belong to my son Jason and are both adopted from Kazakstan (sp I can never remember how to spell that).

Amy and her whole family has had the flu, and yes they had their flu shot. I got it from them too. Jacob and Caleb has had it really bad. Katie said she wasn't going to get it, but she did. I think she is so smart that she knew if she waited long enough before she came down with it she would get more attention and not have to share that attention with the boys. She is a very smart girl. She can count all the way to a 'mousand' and that is a lot!

I am retired now for going on three years from civil service. That is I worked for the government for almost 20 years. I love staying home and being able to go see my grands, three of which live within 30 minutes of me :-)
Tonight had the most beautiful lunar eclipse. I wish I had a better camera to take a picture of it with. As it is I have a black picture with a large blurred reddish white dot.
I have at least a mousand pictures of the grands that I want to start seriously scrapbooking. I want to learn how to do it online too. I have joined SIStv and hope to get over there and take some of their classes.
