Hi! Son, YOU weren'r born yet, when the 1st Gretchen was sick and I lay on the couch, by the fireplace in Cranbury. Gretchen was a little older than Franklin that year. She had pneumonia. She lay on top of me. I tried to read a book...holding it over her back!! Talk about being "tied down"...that was an ultimate 'tied down'!! Grandma Grace kept the household in order. I wish YOU could have known her, before she got OLD & SICK! I love the LOVE shown in the Blog Phone Photo!!! Your Mother...MAINEly!
"The first thing you have to do if you want to raise nice kids, is you have to talk to them like they are people instead of talking to them like they're property"
