Grandparents...

David, Grandma Rita, and Me

Me, Grandpa Ron, and David

Jesse and I have been thinking a lot about family and the future and discussing the possibility of moving closer to either his or my family before we actually start a family of our own. I think being close to family is important. I want my kids to be close to their cousins like I was and  still try to be. I want my kids to know their grandparents and spend time with them on a regular basis. I was lucky to have 6 grandmas and 4 grandpas when I was born. By the time my brother came along we had only 4 grandmas and 4 grandpas. Now we are down to 1 of each. I miss all of them and I'm so grateful that I was able to know them. I'm also grateful that I have the 2 grandparents left. Hopefully they will both get to be apart of my kids lives someday too, because I know I wouldn't be who I am if it weren't for them... all of them.  I love you all and miss you.
