Delinquent

Do you love the blanket? Thank heavens I finished it so Nicholas could have his photograph taken in this. He is the "easiest" grandchild so far, but perhaps this is because his mother is doing such a good job in meeting his needs. He came much earlier than expected and I thought he looked like Elvis, with the long sideburns, dark hair, blue eyes and amazing long fingers, perfect for piano or guitar playing. I don't have any pictures of me, but I have enough of the children so there is a different screen saver every day, which makes working a lot more pleasant than it otherwise would be. I keep wishing I were able to do "gramma" things instead of being stuck in the office. I hope Dena will post photos of the other projects I was able to finish lately, since I became reacquainted with knitting. It does make me homesick for my mother. I talk to my sister a lot to make up for us being orphans. Well, I have a chance to write another grant to bring in another one hundred thousand dollars to our state, so I must return to the more mundane parts of my existence, leaving behind the sublime grandparenthood. :::::::sigh:::::::::::8-5-09
