I'm not one to complain, or maybe I am. {I AM looking forward to being a cranky old lady....} With COVID, and the big ladies living in different towns, and work schedules, and the price of gas, well, let's just say that's it's been a hard winter for the Ball Team. But here they all are. I talk to each of them everyday. I know they each face challenges. I know they will find a way. They have each other. This photo was taken at Grandmom's house, when we got together for Mother's day. This crew made me a Mom, Charlotte made them aunts and uncles! Just to catch you up, dear reader - they are, from left to right: Samantha (22), Charlotte (19), Josephine (17) and JMichael (14), with Rachel (24) seated in the front.
And Miss Rascal - Ezamay at two and a half. She knows how to take al her clothes off. She's starting to potty train and she will talk your ears off. You won't have a clue what the story is about, but, boy, this girl can spin a yarn. Here hers is with her Poppy.
