It's ok to brag
Yes. It is ok to brag. Today I got a visit from my great granddaughter. She is nine months and four days old. We went to Village Coney for lunch. She happily chewed on several dill pickle spears. She was then stood on the floor where she proceeded to walk around. No, not totally surefooted but walking on her own nonetheless. Many many years ago, I had a baby born with Spina Bifida / hydrocephalus. He lived eight months. Once, just once as I held him, he raised his face, looked at me and cooed. It might as well have been the Gettysburg Address. I have bragging rights. We all do. It's alright...................marge
