The phone rang late this afternoon and I was so happy to see that it was my two youngest granddaughters calling me on FaceTime. I had ordered them a few things, which thankfully fit, (they are growing so fast!) and they wanted to show me. The next hour was full of the latest news, magic tricks, showing me their art work, their latest inventions, talk of school and a lot of laughter. Whatever I am doing comes gladly to a halt while I enjoy my time with these sweet girls. They are so creative and smart. They love to read and both read far above their school level. I signed them up for Literati and they love the day the books arrive. I really miss our condo and being close to the girls in Chicago! Thankfully, we will receive our second Covid vaccination in a couple of weeks and will feel better about traveling after that.
January 2020 at our condo in Chicago. I miss those days!
I also had a sweet talk with my firstborn granddaughter this afternoon. She is a senior in college on a full-ride scholarship. It’s difficult to believe that she will soon graduate from college! She is now trying to decide where she will go to complete her Masters. I remember when she was the age of the youngest two granddaughters! Where does time go?!
I can’t believe this little angel is now about to graduate from college in a few short months.

Oh those grands they steal your heart like no one else can. We have just one 10 year old who is one amazing kid. I will go to see about the book club you posted but she too is above her level and loves si fi books so not sure if they would work for her. It is hard to be in college right now I work in a college town and the kids are struggling. But she is on her way to grad school so luckily she got her early years in in normal times.

Cathy, you’re right about stealing our hearts! I also have one granddaughter who is a freshman in college right now and one who is a junior in college. And another granddaughter who is a junior in high school. And three in elementary school. I just wish that all nine of my grandkids were in one location but they’re scattered from Seattle to Winston-Salem, North Carolina!
