Where Is Nana Diana Today?

We are not Catholic
but my daughter married
a Catholic
and they are raising their
children in their chosen faith.

The above invitation is an
actual picture of Ria in
her first communion dress.
It's the same one her sister
wore but she got to pick
a special pin to make it
her own.
In a couple of years it
will pass down to
SweetCheeks.

My daughter has been
working around
the clock to get things
ready for a big brunch
for 50 plus people
after the service.

I, on the other hand,
have had SweetCheeks
for a couple of days.
THAT
is my
BIG contribution.
As you can see she
loves herself almost
as much as I love her.
sigh...I have 
SUCH a HARD JOB!
It's been just
AWFUL!;>D
And, if you believe THAT
I might have a bridge
in Brooklyn you
would like to buy.

I'll be back
tomorrow with
pictures and story.
Have a wonderful
blessed
Sunday.

  2. I am so looking forward to having conversations {in some form of the English language} with my granddaughter, Diana. Reading about you and Sweetcheeks really makes me look forward to it. She chatters on and on, especially at night, and if we could understand what she was saying, I'm sure it would be quite interesting.

  13. I know how difficult it has been for you minding Sweet Cheeks. That is how I entertain one of my granddaughters, the one I call Lady Gaga. A stool in front of an elaborate mirror and she's good to go for an hour! ~ Maureen

  14. Enjoy it, Diana. They grow up so fast and then we're just left with the memories. Is it enough! Well, it has to be, I suppose. They go on and live their own life, as they should, of course!

  25. Diana: I love the picture on the invitation. How nice each girl just changes a piece of jewelry and makes it her own. Picture of all three together will make it very special. Have to do some fancy trick photography thing to make that happen!! Happy Sunday..Judy

  31. Blessings to Ria. The dress and the veil are beautiful. I am not Catholic either but it is always wonderful to see people have a deep faith. It looks to be a wonderful celebration. How lovely the children were able to witness the baptism.
    I have been scrolling down and loved your post with the monkey sheets and the Olive Garden visit. I loved All your posts!
    They just closed our big Barnes & Noble and put in a furniture store. There are other B&N's nearby so all is not lost.
    Love to you all. XO
