I was Never Gonna Be...

...that kind of a grandfather, you know, the kind who thinks his are the most beautiful grandkids in the world.

Then our eldest son Dallas and his wife Amanda had three, and our middle son Chad and his wife Christa had one, and what do you know? They ARE the most beautiful in the world.
Here's Dallas and Amanda's youngest, Elle (we call her Beanie), on her fourth birthday the other day. I called and sang to her and she wished me happy birthday. Dianna told her she remembered the day Beanie was born, and Beanie said, "I don't care. Love you. Bye!"

Here she is with brother Sam (soon to be 8) and sister Maya (5).
And here's Chad and Christa's Isaac imitiating Michael Jordan.

It should be noted that Beanie is autistic and doesn't always know what she's saying! :) She DOES care and love her Grandmama.

I have to agree, they are beautiful! It's kind of interesting that you call her beanie, my 5th child, Ashley was nick named beanie, as well! LOL!

Love the pictures, and she sounds like a joy to have in the family.

Enjoying the writing course! I am grateful that you started the mentoring program.
