A(nother) Child Is Born

Anna Sophia, our newest granddaughter, arrived safe, sound, and healthy on September 7. She and her mommy are doing great. Dad is proud as a peacock, and big sister is fascinated, at least so far.

Grandmama is swamped. Keeping up with a two-year-old is more work than it seemed thirty-several years ago. Also more fun. Today the two of us went to the weekly Free Kids' Show at Ruta Maya, a coffee house in Austin. This is the place to take tots on Sundays in Austin. The place was SRO. The show featured a juggler who specializes in juggling machetes — heady stuff for wee ones and beyond comprehension for grannies.

Although my own list of story ideas is growing by the hour, it's time to take a Grandmother Break. I shall resume blogging in two or three weeks. Until then, keep those fingers flying across the keys or pages.

Write on,

Sharon Lippincott, aka Ritergal
