Grandma told us, when Sophia was first born, that she wanted to be called "Gee Gee" for either "Great Grandma" or "Grandma Gwen". It took me a while to accept it because she has always been the very southern "grandma" to me but I've come to love it. She insisted the spelling be Gee Gee...I fought for a long time for the spelling of G.G. Oh well, Grandma usually wins.
Grandma moved to Brandon from Kissimmee in 2002, 3 yrs before Sophia was born. She's been able to watch her and Ethan grow...and I'm so thankful for it! She's as sharp as a whip and has an amazing sense of humor! She is constantly critiquing the staff where she resides, yet they love her more than anyone. She's got a gift for making friends!
Anyway, we made one of our biweekly visits today. Grandma's been weak but always feels lifted by the company of Sophia and Ethan. Grandma thinks they are the most intelligent kids on the face of the earth and insists they get it from their papa.
Here's a shot of Sophia saying goodbye to Gee Gee. She always tilts her head in so SHE can kiss HER...this always tickles Grandma.
