Why A Girl Needs a Grandpa

So, I'm sitting in Mass with my class yesterday. One of my little girls starts crying. I try to go over and find out what's wrong. She says, "I miss my grandpa"(her grandpa died during last school year). So immediately, I start thinking about my own grandpa who passed away around the same time. At the time, lots of my cousins posted blogs about what a wonderful man Grandpa Charlie was. I wasn't sure then what I wanted to say, but I know now. My grandpa was a man of action; not words. He did many great things in his lifetime. The best thing he ever did for me (or for any of his grandkids if you ask me) was to teach our parents how to be good parents. It's often said that a man should be measured not by what he has, but by what he leaves behind. If that's true, my grandpa received an A+ at life.

Show Me Your Momma/ Who's Your Daddy?

Since it was posted first on Y360, for those of you who may have missed it. Here is the original post (with a few adjustments.)

Reasons My Mom is Great
1) She works really hard to provide for us! She got her nursing degree with a newborn at home and got her Bachelor's with four kids at home.
2) She never minded taking us (and 5 friends) somewhere. She loves having company!
3) She is a fantastic nurse! She was voted Employee of the Month for her entire hospital.
Along with this challenge, I want to add a new one. It's the Who's Your Daddy? post.
I am a true daddy's girl. He is amazing! He was my best friend until I started preschool. I tell people all the time that I will have a hard time finding a husband. My dad has set a very high standard!
Okay, enough mush. Why don't you Show Me Your Momma! By the way, Who's Your Daddy?!

Let's See the Sibs!

Several months ago, Jennie and Jess posted the Show Me Your Momma blog. I thought this was a cute idea so I responded with the Who's Your Daddy blog. Now, I wanna see the sibs. Here is my most recent (and favorite) pic of my sibs and me.
