Samantha's Birthday

18 years ago today we were blessed with our first grandchild.  It's hard to believe that the infant I held in my arms who stole my heart is now 18 years old.  So many thoughts today.  Rocking her to sleep, laying out her babies on the floor and covering them with kleenex for a blanket, crying when she had to wear a dress to the symphony (5 or 6 at the time), when we got her fish for Christmas (screaming "I got fish" over and over), love of animals, and on and on.  Now she is a beautiful young woman who will be going to college next year.  We are so proud of her and are bursting with our love of her.  Happy Birthday Sam

About Me

We retired after years of being in the computer support business, Jane with Brulin Corp and John with Unisys. We tried tent camping but finally settled on RV living. While we are part timers now, we hope to move to becoming full-timers eventually. John works on his HO model of Ellis, KS UP railroad and Jane persues her search for used books to read and sell on Amazon. We winter in Apache Junction, AZ and summer in Indiana.
