Enlarging Our Tent

Once again we have a full house. It sounds like a card game, doesn't it? Actually it has been more like a chess game as we moved furniture, and closet space to make room for our youngest, vivacious granddaughter Stefani. We moved Grandpa's office out of the last & littlest bedroom to our bedroom.She has been a great help assisting Bryan with his Algebra homework, something we were not able to do.

Oh, yes, that includes another car in the driveway. Grandpa and Gordon have taken every opportunity to sit in the passenger seat of the VW, and Chevy truck for advanced driving instructions on freeways and busy city streets. As she has already been hired at Pottery Barn Kids in Fashion Square, it was important to make sure she could manuever safely through traffic.

The past months have been busy for us with Ron's cataract surgery on both eyes. Unbelievably his vision is better than it has been for years! He only needs reading glasses & his greatest adjustment was to the amount of light and bright colors.

Bryan started highschool this fall and that has been an adjustment for him and us as well. Maybe we will survive the return to parent participation in highschool activities. It has included attending a football game, ROTC gatherings, and parent/teacher conferences.
