Default Our Grandchildren are coming!
Our only two grandchildren will be arriving this evening for a very brief stay. Our grandson is 20 and a student at Ohio University and his older sister is executive producer of Fox Weekend News in a middle sized midwest city. Colin is on Spring Break and Graylyn is taking a couple of days away.

We wanted to introduce them to our friends here in TV but since they are here for such a short time, we don't want to schedule anything .

We are planning to be at Lake Sumter Landing at five on Tuesday to listen to the music and watch the dancing for awhile before dinner. If you are there please let me introduce you to our sweet grandchildren.

WOW, how exciting for you. You should be proud to introducing your fine grandchildren. Wish I could be there.

Wishing you and they have a great visit.

Gracie - It's interesting that your granddaughter is named Graylyn. Wake Forest has a conference center called Graylyn. What a coincidence!

Enjoy the visit.

Her mother was at that conference center for a meeting when she thought it might be a good choice for a daughters name. She is named after both of her grandmothers; Grace and Carolyn.

And they are truly charming young adults -- the kind that make every grandmother proud. Gracie, have a ball with them!

GG, I'm so excited for you that they are coming.

Aarrgh, can't believe I have to miss Graylyn again! I picked a mighty fine time to break my arm. Dang.

Enjoy their company (and I am sure that they will enjoy yours!), however brief!

Hey! Our older son is managing director of Fox News in a middle-sized midwest city! (Grand rapids). Wouldn't it be a hoot if...

I'll look for you GG, but I'll be a little late. I've got my French class until 5:30 (I hang in there, hopeless though it may be!)

Excellente. Colin can converse with you. I am limited to directing you to the lu...or the airport. I get the two confused.
