I'm wishing my great-grandson, Ian, a very Happy 19th Birthday today. He is such a sweet great-grandson, and I love him so much. He's shown here at his mother's new business, Circle Up Fitness, which recently opened on Halls Ferry Road in Vicksburg, MS. Great Gran Gran xoxo
Well, I just had a Halloween treat! As I turned off the lights to get ready for bed, I peeked out my living room blinds and, lo and behold, saw two deer at 9:18. I grabbed my phone and snapped a picture, but one was staring dead at me. I slowly closed the blinds but checked again, and they were both gone. I wasn't expecting them to come early, but they wanted a treat too! Happy Halloween, y'all!!!
My granddaughter, Emma (standing in the middle), lives in VA and is studying abroad in Florence, Italy. This weekend, she and her roommates are in Prague. When they first got there, they went to Munich, Germany, for Oktoberfest, then to the Amalfi Coast in Italy. She is living it up, and the experience and the memories will last a lifetime. So proud of her. Here are some pictures taken this weekend in Prague.

I'm wishing my 3rd daughter, Debra Ann "Debi", a very Happy 57th Birthday today. Debi works as a Nanny for two doctors' little girl. She is also a mother of two sons, Stephen and Michael (nicknamed Ethan, who served 12 years in the U.S. Air Force), and a daughter, Lucy. She is blessed with three grandsons, William, Noah, and Asher, and her first granddaughter, due to Lucy in February 2027. I wish her many more incredible years. I love you, MOM
Yesterday and Today, I'm wishing my only son, William David Boyd, a Heavenly 62nd Birthday. He passed away the next day from hyaline membrane disease of the lungs. His mother and sisters, Theresa, Kathleen, Debra, and Marian Suzanne, sadly miss him. The ceramic angel sat atop his flowers, and I've held on to it all these years.
I just set up my security camera to see a deer, and last night, for the first time, two showed up. Before you know it, I will have a herd of deer and maybe a big buck. So far, they haven't figured out the small Himalayan salt lick yet in our great MS outdoors in town.
Wishing both great-grandsons, William David "Will" and Noah, a very Happy Birthday. Yesterday was Noah's 8th Birthday, and today is Will's 9th. Looking forward to the family get-together to celebrate soon. They celebrated their Mom's (Lucy's) 29th Birthday last weekend on a beach in FL. She will be giving me my first great-granddaughter in Feb. 2027. Love y'all so much! Great Gran Gran
