This is the time of year that is traditionally full of back to school and other new beginnings, and it occurs to me that life within our family is no exception:
My spouse and I have just made a deposit on another cruise, details to follow as we get closer to the time.
My newly retired west coast brother spent today learning about the wonders of Medicare and supplemental insurance.
My son tells me he's going to have a new office at work as soon as they finish building it.
My daughter-in-law is starting another year of teaching high school French and Sociology.
One of our grandsons is going off to his first year of college.
Another grandson is getting married this Saturday. We will be meeting a lot of new in-laws.
His soon-to-be wife is expecting our first great grandchild.
Our youngest granddaughter is starting third grade, not one of the 'little kids' any more.
Yet another grandson will be getting his driver's license soon.
We're getting new carpet in the guest bedroom (that's only exciting to us).
School buses are back on the streets.
Wonderful sweet corn and huge locally grown cantaloupes were available at the Amish market today. Delicious and good for us.
Isn't this a fine time of year? It makes me smile just thinking about it all.
