Why Soil Test Interpretations Suddenly Got Slower...

What a little beauty she is. Love her name Keira Mae.
I can see why you and Dad where in a fog then and
probably still 3 months later. :D

I have 5 grandchildren. 4 girls and one boy.
The oldest is 23 yrs. then
19, 16 (boy), 7 and 4.

BTW, I'm a young grandma :tease:
