Well, here in Korea folks are celebrating Children’s Day in the traditional fashion…

And of course, in Mexico the Cinco de Mayo celebrations are in full swing…

But the most important celebration on May 5 is the one honoring my first born grandchild’s birthday.

Ain’t she sweet?

Gracyn was born just a few months after I first arrived in Korea. And today she becomes a teenager! I’m not sure how that happened, all I know is I ain’t anywhere near old enough to have a teenaged grandchild.

She’s something special, no question about it.

Happy birthday Gracyn!
