A New Cross Family Era

I really must apologize for the lack of posts this year.  Things are changing very quickly in the Cross family.  I have started working on my Masters of Education in Technology.  I like it, but I still think I would rather be a teacher than a student.  Our first grandson, Chase, was born in February.  Now we have two more grandsons on the way!  Stephanie and John are being tight-lipped about the name.  (Please not another John…)  Tiffani and Joel have announced that Caleb is on the way.  Stephanie is due in October, and Tiffani due in November.  I can personally say grandparenting is going to be fun!  It truly does agree with my wife Patricia.  She may not look like a grandmother, but she sure enjoys being one.  We now look at shopping in a whole different way.  We have informed our children that Christmas is now all about the grandchildren.  They will have to buy their own Christmas presents.  (Well, at least it was a good idea…)  Actually, you never quit loving them.  I’m sure they will never get left out.  I am amazed how the human heart expands to love more and more people.  I remember wondering as a new parent how I could love another child as much as the first one.  Yet love continues and grows.  There can never be too many grandchildren for this Grandma and Papa!  And I think we see a Disneyland trip with the Three Musketeers in our future!
