She is the firstborn granddaughter – now twenty-one years old – a Junior at the University of Lynchburg, Va.

She is going for a degree in Engineering Science – carrying a 3.80 GPA.

And of course, we are excited – she will be here a little over one week.

I remember picking her up after my work at the babysitter –

and we would sing Old McDonald had a farm.

Or the time when she just started to walk –

I had placed a blanket in the front yard –

and she would not go off the blanket because the grass was strange on her tiny feet.

Thanks for reading Papa’s World – will continue her Spring-break with us in the next blog.
