Our middle grand, Dara, turned 9 yesterday. Her Mom took the pictures, because Covid kept us apart. We left her presents on he porch.
I am now beginning to wonder if we will miss most of the rest of their childhood. At least we are all healthy!

What beautiful but bittersweet pictures, dear friend. I know the feeling... we share them. We've had one "driveway party" last month, to celebrate our oldest daughter's birthday. But *everybody* had on a mask and only I served the food & touched the serving utensils.... and put food on paper plates, which everyone ate with plastic throw-away forks & spoons. *sigh* Dan brought the ping-pong table out of the garage and set it up in the driveway... plus the bags game. We figured those things were two "safe distancing" games. Believe it or not, we bought a free-standing bedside commode from Walmart (online order) and we set it up in the other garage, with a big sheet hanging from the ceiling for privacy.... and bar soap near the outside hose, for hand-washing afterward. The guys went potty in the woods behind the house. Where there's a will, there's a way! But I sure don't like it. I'm already worried about Christmas. Love, Andrea xoxo
Your three girls are just gorgeous! That has to be hard missing graduation. Hard missing birthday parties. Is your state still on shelter in place - or are you doing it. The state here is wide open - carefully I guess you'd say. I don't know what is better. Congrats to the grad and happy birthday! Love, sandie
Such beautiful girls! Hope everything will be better soon, we are also missing our family!
Awwwww, don't think that way Ginny...that would be so sad to miss them that long. Have a positive thought & soon you'll see them & hug them.
All three of your granddaughters are beautiful. Hopefully you'll be back to seeing them again.
We "literally" watch Anne grow up here in this blog, Ginny! Now she is 14, wow! While she is growing older, we here are growing wiser... I hope! hahahaa... Nice and touching post,Ginny!
I can't even imagine how much you miss your three girls! That collage of the three of them is just beautiful and I love love love it! I cannot believe that Anne-Marie is going to be in high school. I'm so sorry she has to start it with covid-19 and no idea how school will be or if it will be
They are growing up so fast and are beautiful.
Congratulations to Anne Marie on the graduation and happy birthday to Dara! Your granddaughters are growing up to be such beautiful ladies. The header photo is stunning!
Your granddaughters are absolutely beautiful.
Anne Marie is turning into a beautiful young lady. My granddaughter is also misisng that ceremony of going from middle school to high school.
Congratulations to your granddaughters, all so beautiful!! Hope you will see them soon to meet in person! Thank you for the nice encouragement on thankfulness!
Your grand kids have all grown so much. Anne Marie is now a beautiful young lady. So wonderful to be able to share their milestones even though you can't celebrate with them in person.
I love the photos.
They have grown up so much.. goodness! Anne Marie is a lovely young lady. All three are beautiful. I love those curls on that little one.
Take care my friend,
Carla
Happy Birthday to Anne Marie and Dara. You have three sweet granddaughters. Lovely photos of them.
Beautiful Granddaughters.
Hard to begin High School in this time of Covid 19.
thanks for sharing your family with us.

Ginny, your granddaughters are so precious! Beautiful smiles! It is so sad that they are missing school milestone ceremonies. I pray that things will return to as they were soon. God bless!
Your granddaughters are so lovely! I think of 2020 as the "skipped" year and we will be able to return to a more regular life next year. I haven't let myself think about things in the future, but tonight suggested moving an activity to 2021 and optimistic I can get together with friends to do the walk in person that we are doing virtually now.
This year's seniors missed out on a lot of milestone events like proms and all, but down the road, they will have a story to tell about the year of the drive through graduations. That's what my NJ grandson had, but in my neck of the woods, they had individual;y scheduled graduations over a period of about three days, where one family went into the gym at a time for the grad to walk across the stage and get their diploma, and then had a chance to take pictures outside.
Happy pictures... and soon you will be right there with your beloved grandchildren.
