I visit with my children and grandchildren in Seattle and my parents and brother in San Diego. Occasionally, I journey to the East Coast to be with my daughter and her family near Washington, DC. In between, I also visit with a host of aunts and uncles and cousins and friends, all dear to me but scattered from shore to shore. Life is good.     The past ten years have brought many joys and sorrows. My parents have passed from this earthly realm and I am the proud great-grandmother of two adorable little boys. I currently reside in Northrn Virginia near our nation's capital.
