I would like to congratulate my little cousin Danny and his wife Denise on the birth of their son, Jay. Jay was born February 20th in Puerto Rico. Danny and I are the youngest grandchildren and we always thought of ourselves as special and the babies of the family. My grandmother Julia now has 9 children, 22 grandchildren, 28 great-grandchildren and 4 great-great grandchildren. We stopped being the little ones a VERY long time ago.
My mother, little Julia, is the only one of big Julia’s 9 children that doesn’t have any grandchildren and she mentions that from time to time. We assure her the day will come……..someday.
Brian finds it incredibly difficult to keep up with the size of my family and remember who everybody is. His comment of the latest addition was “wow, another one to keep track of”. I am going to have to create some type of family tree so that he can refer to it when I am mentioning someone in my family.
That’s going to be some tree!
