I've mentioned it here and there but haven't made the big announcement actually. My youngest son, James and his wife are expecting a baby in September!
James was born late into our marriage, after our children were all teenagers. So it's natural that he is now just beginning a family.
But as with James, I'll be starting all over with grandchildren this time instead of children! My four grandchildren are all grown up or nearly so. They will be 20, 20, 18 and 16 when their little cousin is born.
So I'll be busy this summer crocheting a blanket and knitting some outfits. I can't wait to get settled to begin!

That's one of the big reasons for the resettling in Ohio. But I must have my winters elsewhere!

@Jeanniemaries Knitting is more a winter hobby, but I am sure you will like to make the blanket.
