Introducing to you all:
Kathryn Pamela Grant
(born May 2009)

************************************


Poem Artwork


This is dedicated to my magnificent mother. A true woman-woman if there ever was one and Miss Kate, one month old when her Great Grandmother died; and to two extraordinary ladies.
*******************************

Dame Kathryn passed away this past April.

This accounts for part of my absence.

Thanks to ya'll who missed me.



Queen Bee of our dynasty
Sweet Mother of us eight
Bastion of strength for our family
Wisdom to keep us all straight

Sweet Mother of heart and compassion
A lover of animal and man
Never underestimates the future
Never I can't but I CAN!

Leader of our family now
Since Dad has ventured on
Heart so huge it's endless
For our family, friends... the throng.

She sits highest on her pedastal
Since birth it's been her fate
We all love her as Mother
Our Father called her his Kate.

Susan Kathryn de Vegter

Susan ...
My deepest sympathies.
I lost my Mother. I still
have not been able to cogitate
the ramifications of loss so close.

Funny, I was only thinking about you a couple of days' ago and wondering how you are. What a roller-coaster year and yes, both our closest's comings and goings require our full emotional engagement in order to appreciate them fully. One door closes and a window opens: the progression and momentum of life itself. I, too, send my love and prayers for your comfort and peaceful resolution at your dear mother's passing, and equally my heartfelt joy at your wonderful addition! The line of Kate's continues and I'm glad, of course! :)) de Vegter women are priceless and a force to be reckoned with, judging by your words, and long may their reigns continue! Here's to your newest little Princess: she already looks enthroned! Lovely to see you here again. Bless you, Kate xx

Susan!

It is soo nice to see you here; welcome home! I've missed you so much! So sorry to hear of the death of your mom; I know the pain of losing not only my mom (she died 19 years ago), but also my big, strong daddy (he died last year). Know you are ever in my prayers and thoughts! God be with your family during this sad time of loss! But O! To see the new life in your granddaughter; she is a little cutie pie! Congratulations on her birth! Well done, Susan; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :)

I have a grandson, Kason, my son's baby, he was born May 22, 2009! We have grand babies the same age! how awesome is that? I really hope you received all my messages, and I am so glad to see you posting again. Don't be a stranger, stay awhile and feel the love.
Much peace, love, and light,

As Southerners, perseverence has been bred into us. We survive, simple. Susan I went to Blue Ridge today looking at a house. Got to the realtor's office and after all the paperwork, he caled the broker and they had acceped and offer........Was my dream house.....Sheeit.....Gotta be one more that fits the bill.....
But there were a couple fatal faults in the design, but I would have taken it at the price.
