I thought I would start my blog off with what I hope is a cute beginning.  This is one of my baby pictures.  It would have been taken in 1958.  Yes, way back when they had no color in photographs.  I think I am kind of adorable here.  I could not find the one I was really looking for I am not sure who has it but I don't.  The photograph I was looking for was taken in the same sitting as this one.  My "booties" were off and I was sucking on my big toe.  Apparently this was something I did on a frequent basis.  I must have had very sweet toes, lol.  Before Arthritis I was double jointed so it was an easy effort to make.  Now if I tried to get my toe up to my chin someone would have to transport me to the hospital.  Hahaha.  It's not easy getting old but the consolation comes with all those wonderful little toes from all those wonderful little grandchildren's feet as they run to me EVERY time they see me yelling "Grammy" like they have not seen me in years although they just saw me a few days or so before.  Now THAT makes up for ALL the aches and pains that age and illness can bring on me.
