Gramma Chicken & Lexi

Gramma Chicken & Lexi

This is my granddaughter Lexi and myself before her leaving for California last summer. Thank goodness she visits each year as it was the hardest part of leaving CA 3 years ago, though Lexi and I share a phone date night each Sunday evening where we catch up with one another’s week of happenings. This 13 year old is responsible for teaching me how to use photoshop and becoming so interested in digital art. She will be visiting us again at the end of August 2009, can’t wait to see her.
When she was little, because of all the divorces and extra grandparents, she broke them down to descriptive remembrances ~ our was Gramma and Grampa Chicken because we had hundreds of them wandering our space there, other pet grandparents’ titles were ‘Football’, Cookie, and the list goes on…

For a challenge, photo as is
