Enormously Blessed!

It has been 28 years in the making...but I am tearing up just typing this.  I am enormously blessed.  My prayer is...Please Blessed Mother, I can not be with Ruthie and all my children (and grandchildren)all the time, but you can. Wrap all of them in your mantle of protection and love. Through your powerful intercession and guidance gentle lead my children to your Son.

Yikes you need to know how to tie your shoes in kindergarten!  Ruthie's crash course at the park just a few days ago...

Now here are some summertime memories...I asked Sarah (my daughter and mother to my beautiful grandchildren) to send some of her pictures and she included this note in the email...

"Tell your readers that summer is a time for family...these are the memories that will ultimately shape our image of ourselves, not trips to Disney World or expensive camps.  Family is forever!"

Yep, I'm am enormously blessed!

Peace and joy,

Nancy
