Sweet Baby James

This is my grandfather in his first year.  I can easily see the faces of his grandchildren (even great-grandchildren) shining through the years.  
I think its important to have an idea of the launching pad where the rocket of our lives came from.
James was a gentleman.  He raised 5 daughters during the depression and his girls had everything but money.  He made sure his family was taken care of and that they had adventures along the way.  He taught them to be kind and generous.  To be determined and focused.  And to be aware and informative.
     The gifts he gave his girls have been passed on to the next generation and his spirit rings even into his double great grandchildren
     I am incredibly proud to be a part of his family.  I just wish I'd had the opportunity to meet him.
