The story about the girls is delightful. I know what it means when you're called by your first and middle name. Daddy is not pleased. I know you will have an enjoyable time visiting your family and spoiling the girls. Seeing them will probably give you new ideas for your letters.

Thank you for the support.
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Your granddaughters sound like me and my sister. I hope their lives are different from ours. We really only became friends in our fifties. Too many people made comparisons aloud. Very bad choice for little kids. My sister, the troublesome one, was much more loved than I. Go figure. We also were just about the same difference in age, in our case one week less than 3 years apart.

Thank you for the support. Thank you for the catch. I kept staring at that word knowing it was wrong but couldn't get my head around it. LOL

Comment from royowen
All my elder daughter's boys.(she has no girls) all three have two Christian names, when she's not pleased with them, they get all their names, including their surname, which, of course, is different from ours, well done Barbara, blessings Roy
Typo : Looked (in) my direction.

Comment from BethShelby
You are certainly being careful about the wording on these letters. Children at that age don't always stay the way they seem. But as you say, children aren't the same just because they are sisters. My three girls are all different. I hope you have a wondeful tirp and enjoy your grandchildre. I got called my all three of names often until I started to school, but then I became shy and quiet for while. My sweetest, quietest child became a little demon at ten. You never know.

Great update, Barbara. I just don't know what the world would do without grandparents...but being one, I am surely a bit biased. You have a lovely family. Looking forward to the letters. Safe travel. - Jamison

As great grandpa, I remember how my grand daughter and my daughter, her aunt, used to literally battle over everything. Now that my grand daughter is married with three children, she and her aunt are as thick as any two thieves could possibly be. Strange how personalities change over time.

Hello, Barbara, what a great idea, now I want to write letters to all my kids and grandkids. I like your sense of humor, it's fun. I know how you feel, spending time with family is the best feeling ever. I just spent some time with my son, his wife, her daughter, my daughter, her husband, my grandkid. It was so much fun and I felt loved. We ate at a Spanish restaurant and we went to a Mexican open-air market. I found some really cool earings and Calaveras (Mexican folk art skulls for dia de los Muertos)
Good luck with the letters, I know you will do great.
