For You, Grandma Young!

I've been lucky to have the best grandma in the world - so Quincy and Max have the best great-grandma. She always spoiled me (she bought me my only pair of Girbaud jeans in Jr. High, and my leather jacket). She still spoils me, but now she's spoiling my kids too. She's always sending us packages, and Quincy loves them. It's too bad she can't be here to see how much we enjoy them. More importantly than all the things she's given, she's been a friend, one of my best friends. She's a great example to me too. For a long time she was a big Diet Coke drinker, she'd get her big 64 oz mug filled in the morning and sip it through the day. We never would have thought that she would give it up, but then one day she just quit cold-turkey. She likes to quote an old radio drama - Helen Trent. She says that sometimes she's "dashed against the rocks of despair, but she fights back bravely." These are for you Grandma, we love you!

One of the things that grandma sent this time was a cute mini-lunchbox. She also sent a bag of gummi bears which Quincy put in the lunchbox. Yesterday I went up to find Quincy in bed with the lunchbox full of gummies.

If you and Julia go to "Bed, Butts, and Beyond" today, think of these little butts :)
