Denny Jump Photo from Easton, PA, United States

She is so beautiful Franz!! And I LOVE this happy face!! You are showing her the right way with "clowning around" I think it is so important for children and adults NOT to get so serious about things that they cannot remember to just laugh and be silly..I just love her smile and face. This is the best part of being a grandparent, isn't it? Hugs to you all ;-)

28 May 2013 4:05pm

@Denny Jump Photo: you're spot on with everything you say here, denny ... the world is serious enough without us making it even more miserable by not having fun and enjoying ourselves ... ;-) and yes, this IS the best part of being a grandparent !!!
