REFLECTIONS
This first week of travel was "back home in Indiana" with my family. I was comforted to hang out with them and take part of their celebrations! My siblings and I are in our "autumn years". Each visit with them is precious. I didn't grow up with them so each opportunity to bond is like gold charms in my heart! See you again soon! Love ya!
This has been a good 5 GeoGram weeks in the life of Gram G.
