My Dad called this evening. My Grandma, who had been taken to the hospital with pneumonia two days ago, will be taken off life support this evening and released to Hospice care. She’s 95 now and I know that she’s “lived a full life” but that doesn’t make it any easier. And as I talked to my Dad, I realized that, someday, I will have to make this call to MY children about my PARENTS. Reality stinks.
I had been thinking of starting a blog for a while and this is my first attempt. I’m Mom to girl-boy twins. I tend to refer to them as K and M. I never thought that kids would run my life. I don’t know if it’s TWINS per se, but these monsters – um, I mean wonderful children – don’t just run my life, they define my life. My kids stay active with football, baseball, cheerleading and gymnastics. Hubby and I have been married 18 years. (Wow – that means I’m getting really old.) We are what used to be a "normal" American family… house in the ‘burbs, 2 kids, dogs, cats, hamster, frogs, snakes, birds, mortgage and jobs. I have discovered a love of snapping pictures. I may not be great at it - but being behind the camera keeps me from being in front if it. Right?
