Way back in the First Grade our granddaughter and Ellie became the very best of friends.
Then our granddaughter and her family moved, first to Craig, Colorado and now to Parachute, Colorado.
Over time, their friendship never really changed. Sure, for a wee spell it looked like they were drifting away…because, after all, you do need friends to carry you on.
In the vast span of their (in reality) short lives
Their friendship has not changed. Only grown warmer and lengthened to include their experiences in different towns and schools, yet still circling their hearts with smiles for each other.
Truly friends for life.
From my world to your heart,
Linda

Not a problem, Lynn. Yes, Terry is tall, as was his Dad and Grandfather Brown. Linkin’s Dad is 6-5″ and Linkin’s Mother, our daughter is 6′. So with the Weaver DNA and the Brown DNA and the McCormick DNA my grandchildren are growing T.A.L.L.
