This summer’s blog is starting out in New Jersey, where I
had the opportunity to play grandma with my twin grand-daughters Quinn and
Avery. At nine month they are full of
energy and crawling every which-way. They are connoisseurs of mother’s milk and yogurt
with applesauce. Of course they both want to play with the same
toy at the same time…which often causes vocal disputes. But, nap times aren’t always at the same
time which lets the awake twin demand “only child” status for an hour. Walks to the park and swinging on the swings are
their main entertainment. They also love
to bang on Great-Grandma Herrmann’s cookie tin. I’ll miss all those hugs and kisses as I go
off to meet Bob in Barcelona.
