For the first time since we have been married, nearly 35 years, Bob and I did not have our Thanksgiving dinner in our home.  B.J. and Jenn were heading to Los Angeles, Becca and Carl are in Sweden, so Bob and I agreed to travel to North Caroline.  It would be two people traveling, Bob and I, vs. five people traveling; Jen, Adam, Becca, Henry and Caroline.  We enjoyed a beautiful traditional Thanksgiving at Jen and Adam’s home.

New Baby sister for Becca And Henry

September 28, 2012 by shelley

September 19th, a beautiful fall day in North Carolina, I welcomed a new little granddaughter it was one day after Henry’s birthday. Becca had repeatedly told her mom her baby sister would be born on this day, the day after grandma got into town. When asked how she knew it would be on this day, little Becca said “I talked to her”. She never wavered and at 8:00 p.m. she asked where was her baby sister? When her mom told her she didn’t think it would happen, Becca was still insisting she was coming on this day. And sure enough at 11:13 Caroline Mae Long made her appearance.
