Raising Grampy – Chapter 15
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just hanging out with Grampy. I have lots of toys but I really like his shoelaces. I don’t know what’s going on at my house but my mommy and daddy seem to be changing everything. They put these things on all the outlets. And this stuff is now all around…

Let Me Help You With That –
I’ve been a people-watcher for as long as I can remember. Whether I’m at the airport, the mall, a restaurant or just walking down the street, I always see people and wonder what their story is. My wife, Priscilla, has often said, “Stop staring!” When I see the businessman at the airport I wonder what…

Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I’m just trying to find a way that I can get my buddy Baxter to chill out! I told you last week how you humans have no idea what it’s like to get old. You just don’t. I turned 12 the other day. Thanks for the card. I…

Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just hanging out with Grampy. Big news at the house this week! No, I’m not able to go to Target with mommy yet. And no, Grammy hasn’t been able to visit yet. I learned how to crawl! I’ve been trying to do it for a few weeks but I just…

When Will It All End?
Does it seem like you wake up to a new surprise every day? I noticed this week that the Homecoming Fair in Fairhaven was being canceled and then the Cape Verdean Recognition Day Parade was canceled.

Raising Grampy- Chapter 13
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just hanging out with Grampy. I hope you had a nice Easter. We did. I don’t why my mommy put all this stuff around me. That’s my bunny Fred. He has a mask on. I don’t know why. Grammy and Grampy gave me Fred. I guess Grampy went shopping right…

Would I Be Rude?
Would I be rude if I didn’t go back to shaking hands? I was thinking about this today. I wonder when we’ll go back to normal and I wonder if normal will change. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the medical expert we’ve seen so much of, was on a Wall Street Journal podcast this week when he…

Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. I really can’t figure out what’s going on with the humans around here. I’ve seen so many of them walking by the house with masks on. I don’t think it’s Halloween because I don’t see any candy laying around. Trust me, I would know. Plus I noticed that…

Raising Grampy- Chapter 12
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, just quarantining with Grampy. Ha! I learned that new word. I have no idea what it means but I learned it. I’m just hanging out, teaching the ole guy some baby stuff and helping to edit the blog. Grampy says someday I’ll be able to brag to my future cousins…
