My children are so blessed to be able to have met and spend time with some of their great grandparents.
My grandparents have played such an important role in my life and thankfully both of my grandmother's still do. There may be thousands of miles between us, but they are part of my daily life and we speak on the phone several times per week.
My grandmothers have both lived lives filled with great amounts of love, strength, perseverance, challenges, adventures, victories and success. I am so inspired by each of them. They continue to remain independent and healthy. They have both been my sounding boards throughout my life. They've been a huge part of creating and operating my business. They give me insight and encouragement. I so wish they lived close by so I could help them and take care of them to return the favor.
Sotiria Delaportas and Ardeth Patterson Norman thank you for loving me, encouraging me and for your friendship! Love you dearly and proud to be your granddaughter! I hope to live to be a great grandmother and to have a special bond with my great grandkids just as we do! β€οΈ
