Sorry, Cindy. It’s just there are days that I get down. Look at my signature line. Half of my chances at grand-kids are dashed, though my wife and I collect children. We have a recent acquisition now, though he’s about grown-up. We’re trying. Keep the faith, as they say.

Amen. In the last months of her life my grandmother was not in her right mind. I still treasure our times together. They were the best we ever had.
