Busy being Grandma and Mommy

Over the past few weeks, I've been a little slow in posting to the blog.  I'm happy to say it's been for a good reason.  My 14 yr old granddaughter (step), that I introduced you to a few posts ago, and I have been spending more time together.  What a bright light she is!  She's not the typically 14 yr old girl that I've experienced.  I'm convinced that her purpose here on earth is to spread joy and she does that with everyone around her.  A couple weekends ago we went to a function called For Sisters Only and we had a great time.  I also introduced her to my 'son from another mother', Tyler, who is also 14.  They hit it off really well.  Below are a few pictures from our weekend.  

At For Sisters Only in the Georgia World Congress Center.  It was sponsored by Ford, so there were a few cars scattered about.


Only in my world can you have a 14 yr old son, and a 14 yr old granddaughter.  I love my life!

My heart, Tyler

It doesn't get any better than this.

I will be posting a doll post by tomorrow.  I'm working on a few commission orders today.  Have a great day!

    1. Kenya - Thanks! Just think, Christopher will be 14 before you know it. He will probably be just as tall as Tyler. Every time I see him in your pictures, I think, "man, he is tall."

    1. Brini - You seem way too young to have a 30 yr old son! Look at me, acting like I know how young/old you are. lol. The power of blogging. We all seem much younger than we are.
