....3 months later and...
1) We have a new grandson Beckham Robert May 2) Steve herniated a disc in his back and had back surgery #2 hasn't been that much fun, but Steve is recovering wonderfully--and we feel very blessed. But #1 was the highlight! Jeri spent about 4 weeks total in CA (March/April) and was able to spend a lot of time with Gracey and was there to welcome Beckham.

Thoughts on turning '52'
I admit that I like my birthday. It's touching to be remembered, and we never grow out of needing that! I truly enjoyed the phone calls, emails, texts, cards,treats dropped off, gifts, and the occasional "I didn't know it was your birthday...Happy Birthday!"
And honestly, isn't '52' just a number? I respectfully know that it represent years of living, and I'm enjoying some of the fruits of my life lived thus far...
After 31 yrs. of marriage, Steve & I enjoy a certain type of peace together. I know that there is no one I'd rather spend the eternites with. I am in awe of my adult children-their goodness and love for each other is inspiring. I'm crazy in love with my grandchildren. The other day someone asked me how many I had (as my constant speaking of them gives the impression that I have many!) In theory, I have trillions-and I adore them all.
It's great that we can just keep on learning, changing, evolving...and hopefully always appreciating this life that God has given each of us.

Winter is ALmoSt over!
Ok, so I'm one of those people who loves a white Christmas--for the effect--
and then want it comfortably warm. I start worrying about cold weather in(I'm embarrased to write this) August! I know it's crazy.
Ilove:
Sunshine!
My roses in bloom
Spring daffodils--and then the emergence of my bright orange tulips
Fresh basil from my herb garden
Warm summer nights in the canyons
Picnics & bar-b-ques
Having daylight until after 9:30pm
Watching the neigborhood kids playing in the water
Steve & I taking a walk at night...no jacket needed
All these joys are just around the corner!
