We go to many of their games but I miss the one on one we had with them when they were younger. My granddaughters are still very young and I have lots of snuggle times with them. I hope I live long enough to see them grow up, graduate and get married--all things to look forward to!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-22276052904319358082016-05-23T08:59:17.311-05:002016-05-23T08:59:17.311-05:00Your pride shines through any sadness, BJ!

I treasure every single minute I have with her. Your grands are all gorgeous, I see why it takes your breath away. The memories are priceless. My daughter set up a facebook page for our granddaughter and we share everything on that page and I send her notes all the time. She will always have this to look back on.

What a wonderful occasion---FOUR of your Lovies, all stepping out on a bright, brand-new path in the world.<br /><br />Think of these caps and gowns as a stepped-up version of the little Snow White dresses, the pink tutus, the jeans and shorts and the sweet Halloween costumes, the lacy Sunday pinafores that these young women have worn and laughed and made such wonderful memories in. The little cowgirl boots and Mary Janes and sandals were small practice-shoes to all those glorious steps into the future.<br /><br />And FOUR all at once, all of an age---what a fabulous, good-times and fun childhood Y'all must have had together. I don't think I've ever known a Grandma so blessed with seeing such accomplishments all in one day. Like my friend Miss Ena used to say, "You won't have a button left on your dress." And how blessed are the children of such a loving raisin'. <br /><br />Even a smile bright as yours is going to get quite a work-out, and take a hankie, just in case.<br /><br />Feeling the KVELL from here,<br /><br />rachel<br /><br />RachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-6396707986169703402016-05-21T11:34:23.078-05:002016-05-21T11:34:23.078-05:00Yep, happy and sad at the same time.
