Proud Grandpa
My youngest granddaughter, Willow, turned fourteen yesterday, and I feel awful because I let her big day slide right on by. My flimsy excuse for the oversight is that even though today is only Monday, it still has been a very hard week! Willow lives with her family in Oregon, and in my defense, I did personally hand her a birthday card and a gift one week ago today when she and her mother were visiting in the Ozarks as part of a special Thanksgiving trip.
Willow will be heading to high school in the fall. It is near her house and her older brother went to the same high school, all of which should help take the edge off of the experience, and she told me that she is looking forward to the move from middle school, especially the new activities and challenges that high school has to offer. I know she will make many good friends during the years that she is there. High school is an exciting time . . . I remember . . . barely!
Happy (late) birthday to you, Willow. I hope you scored many nice presents. I also hope you had a good time while you were visiting in Missouri and Kansas. We sure did enjoy getting to see you and your mother. Have a wonderful year - and a great time in high school!
Much love on the day after your birthday from Pa Rock, Rosie, Gypsy, and Uncle Nick!
