the GREATS in our lives



What a blessing it is to have grandparents, and for Elsie--her great grandparents!It was neat for each of them to meet sweet Elsie. One of the many treats during the holiday break was to visit my Great--Elsie's Great Great Grandma--Ruesch. It was sweet to see her reach over to hold Elsie like one of her own--even at 87 years old. She is much more frail and not as energetic as she once was, yet she will give a good smile and her eyes are as deep as they'll come with wisdom, experience, laughter, and love.
