To get up to date I'll talk about most recent events. The most important one is my grandson's graduation from Grade 8. What a milestone for this family! We have not seen each other since last summer and boy! has he changed - for the better. He got taller, smarter and better looking than ever.
Dillon graduated with Honours, received a scholarship to a great high school, received several trophies and awards during the Graduation Luncheon. We were so proud of him - especially me - I was ready to burst! Right now he is attending, what he called: summer camp. He was invited to study at a Georgia university for 3 weeks taking several courses. He did the same thing last summer at another university in North Carolina.
As I said before - he is smart, good looking and a gentleman. What else could a NANA ask for! Maybe some great hugs while visiting - which was in ample supply while we were in Florida during the last part of May. Wish we were living closer to each other for more frequent visits - but "no can do". Once we win the lotto - then we will make sure that part of the year we will live closer to them. Oh, well, one can dream and if you do it hard enough and long enough - it just might happen. Oh, please, let it happen soon.
I have posted some photos in my Flickr album I took while visiting family and friends. All in all it was a terrific time we spent together. And now I'm looking forward to planning our next visit. I have no idea when that will be but it can't be soon enough for me.
Special Hugs to all,
