A is for Ambrynn

When I did the 2006 ABC Along I had a rule that I wouldn't use any people for my letter posts. This time around, though, things are going to be different. I mean, really, how could I not choose my beautiful little granddaughter to represent the letter A in my life?

This little angel stole my heart from the first time I saw her (you can read about that here, if you'd like) and I miss her desperately now that she has moved to Florida with her mom and dad. She's 2 1/2 and time is passing too quickly. Her father tells us that she has developed quite a stubborn streak and the terrible twos have arrived in full force. But I'm her nana and it's hard for me to imagine her as being anything other than sweet and lovable.

Soon, though, I won't have to imagine at all. You see, A is also for Airplane and on Saturday Dale and I will be boarding an airplane and flying to Florida for a little visit.

I'm so excited I can hardly stand it. Turns out A is also for Anticipation.

A is also for Adorable. And for Awesome, which is what I think of your upcoming trip. Yay for Nana hugs!

Awwww, just precious! I'm sure you just can't wait to see her. And her parents too! :)

Beautiful spinning you've been working on - I don't think I've gotten up from the wheel in 5 days! So FUN!

That green looks like the Cascade 220 Heather that I got last weekend to make a sweater for myself! Looking forward to seeing the final photos!

Take care and have a wonderful trip to FL! Enjoy the warm weather! XOXOXOX

Posted by: blogless sharon at January 17, 2008 3:52 PM

She is beautiful Carole and being the family person you are I imagine it must be so hard to have her so far away. Your trip sounds fabulous and it will be great to spend time with her.
