Adventures of ME and GRACE ANNE!

There have been many new adventures in store for Grace Anne and me! As I have said earlier we are re-opening my aunt’s house and loving it, so many wonderful memories. I had two aunts and two uncles, much older than my Mother, they didn’t have children of their own, so for six years I was the only child on the planet, then my sister Donna was born and I learned quickly to share. That is what my first book is about, sharing and telling the truth, even when it is hard to do. It is a lesson all must learn and Grace Anne and her Cousin Emily did as well.

I could really have pulled this story from many of my childhood memories, and I guess I did, for my Cousin Sarah Lynn and I shared many moments as Grace Anne and Emily do. Though this story I really pulled from Grace Anne herself. My oldest son Duncan lives in Dallas, Texas, he came home one week-end and brought a guest, complete with her dog, Clyde. I showed them to the guest bedroom, along with a big bag of toys she had packed for Clyde. Well as the week-end progressed I noticed that Clyde’s toys were ending up in my bedroom where Grace Anne sleeps in her snuggly “Mouse BED”. That week-end we had to give Clyde’s toys back to him and Grace Anne did not want to, though as the true Southern Mother I am, Grace Anne needed help in learning her lesson of sharing and telling the truth!

So many adventures await Grace Anne and I…we LOVE adventure.
