Ryan

6/7/03

Ryan is a busy 4 year old and what a darling!   He still has those beautiful ice blue eyes.  I can't believe he will be starting school in September.  He never walks anywhere ... he RUNS!  His Mommy and Daddy are divorced now but they share custody of him, so he spends 50% of the time with each of them.  His favorite toys are trains, and when I was traveling the summer of 2006 and visited some train museums, of course I bought him some train souvenirs.

Rylee is such a little sweetie and a Mama's girl for sure!   When I visited she really didn't remember me and was understandably shy at first but warmed up fairly quickly.  She has a strong personality knowing what she wants and doesn't want.  We took a walk along the lake boardwalk to look at the Christmas lights and she really enjoyed that, so did I but it was really cold!

Raiganne is my youngest granddaughter.  I had so much fun with her when I visited in December.  Of course, she was so young she won't remember me, but I hope I'll be able to see her and her sisters at least a couple of times a year and really get to bond with them.  She is such a good and happy baby!  She goes to the same pre-school as Austyn and Rylee and is in the 'Baby Class' that her Mommy teaches so it works out well and she is with Mommy full-time.

Sarah is 15 this month and a pretty young lady.  She looks a lot like her mother did as a young girl.  I can't believe their mother, Sina, has 2 teenagers!  She was a teenager herself (18) when she got married.

Travis, Sarah, and their parents have been in Virginia for a few years now and from what they tell me, they really like it there.  I don't blame them, it is a beautiful state ... but so far away!
