Teens!

Two of my teenaged grandchildren, Jacob and Johannah, visited us in Watsonville last week. It was a true pleasure to have them here. We talked, walked, and ate together, enjoyed visiting Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, and the Monterey Aquarium, and the Shakespeare Festival ("Romeo and Juliet") at the University of California outdoor theater. We also celebrated their cousin Shevawn's (another of our teen grands) 15th birthday while they were here. I was sad to see them leave but grateful they wanted to spend time with us. Johannah will return to the University of Ohio for her sophomore year and Jacob will be a junior in high school. I'm excited about what's ahead for these talented and truly fine young people. I love being their grandmother.
