Gifts

Our oldest grandchild has received many gifts, one being her creative ability.  She can make beautiful quilts, decorate, cook as well as handle a job requiring financial skills.

Oldest grandson with great mechanical abilities can interact with any adult and children always seem to cling to him.  An ex-Marine he has shown enormous bravery in the war in Iraq. Civilian life has been a challenge, but we have great faith that he will be happy in his accomplishments.

Our third grandchild is a granddaughter who after graduating college has an enormously satisfying career. We don’t see her but once a year when she can get time off but take great pride in knowing she is happy.

Fourth grandchild is a remarkable young man whose many accomplishments are any parent’s dream come true, possibly our future president and not said lightly.

Fifth is a multi-talented granddaughter, a beautiful and shining star. Starting college this fall, which path will she take?

Sixth is our youngest grandson who is close to our hearts. In high school with so many avenues to take and so many abilities, we want him to shine too and hope to be there to see it.

The seventh granddaughter has more talents than anyone can imagine.  She’s serious as well as extremely funny.  She also could be president.

Granddaughter eight has great hair. (seriously) Blessed with many friends and a loving sister, she could be vice-president. Her smile just charms everyone.

Lastly, granddaughter nine flies through the air with such grace it can bring tears to your eyes.

  1. I've long been impressed by how industrious and disciplined my nieces and nephews are, by their many creative talents (including sewing, digital, mechanical, musical, drawing, photography, and dance talents), and most especially by what good and caring people they are.

  2. Many great talents, many more to be discovered ... all of them traceable to their grandparents, of course!

  3. This entire family is so blessed with talents that are still being uncovered, or discovered, as Chuck said. They are all a constant source of celebration! I love what this family represents and how close we all are.
