Welcome Home
FYI….I’m posting this a little later than usual today. I usually try to have this out by 10 a.m. but my daughter-in-law Marla (along with 5,000 of her closest friends) came home today after several months at sea. As I mentioned, due to Coronavirus, they never made any port calls. As a result, the U.S.S.…

How’s Baxter? A Canine Update
My wife, Priscilla, was out for a walk the other day when a neighbor stopped her to chat. We live in a neighborhood that’s like that, think “Happy Days” or “Leave It To Beaver.” Everybody looks out for everybody and we talk in the street when we’re out. It’s always funny in the spring: we…

Raising Grampy- Chapter 28
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just hanging out with Grampy and do I ever have news this week! I’m walking! Well, kind of. I walk with my toy. Grampy named it Cubby. He names all my toys but I guess this does look like a Cubby. I also walk with some help from mommy, daddy…

Give It A Shot!
I woke up yesterday morning —— and everything hurt. I get a day like this every now and then and I’m sure there are others that do. I don’t know why as I really haven’t done anything unusual lately. True, I am busy watching my grandson during the week and he’s moving now! Either crawling…

Southern Summer
I’m experiencing my first southern summer and —- uh — yeah—-it’s hot! I know my Florida friends are probably laughing because I’m really not that far south but this is warm enough here in Virginia Beach. I’m helping out with daycare for my grandson and let’s just say, “Thank God for central air.“ A typical…

Raising Grampy- Chapter 25
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, hanging out with Grampy. Last week I wore my camouflage outfit. Grampy couldn’t find me all day! We’ve had a busy week here with the holiday and everything. This was my first Independence Day. Mommy got me all dressed up in my red, white, and blue. I don’t know why…

Missing That Closeness
I read a meme the other day that made me lol, which I guess a good meme should. It was Clint Eastwood in that “Get off my porch” picture and it said: I know it’s been a rough few months for some people and there are still some restrictions. We are still having church via…

Raising Grampy- Chapter 24
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just hanging out with Grampy. DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS? AND WHY DID IT TAKE 9 MONTHS FOR ME TO FIND OUT? It’s been another week of discovering stuff. The other day, mommy and daddy gave me some Ice Cream! It was UN-BE-LIEVE-ABLE! It was cold and creamy and yummy…
