Laptime

This is a photo from today’s date, Sept 5, two years ago in 2022 of our great grandson being read to by his father. My granddaughter sent it out on our family text group back then. She said Lewis (15 months old at that time) loves to have the same book read to him...

I saw this post today on social media “Memories”…. (From 8/31/2012 CBB) “We have a little one-eyed kitty we adopted in January of this year named Minnie. She got an injury to the cornea of her good eye and has been at the veterinarian now for a week in an attempt to...
