ONCE UPON A TIME....

....ahh yes, once upon a time there were two little girls who lived in a far off land called...... Long Island. (Hey, Pat and I retired from L.I. 15 years ago....that's 'far off'!) L'il Graduates l'il Kerri Roberts and l'il Kimberly Christopher are cousins. How 'bout that!




l-r: Mikey, Kimberly, Mother Pat, l'il Kerri Girl, Kelly, Mother Elizabeth and Sean Boy! Pat and Elizabeth are sisters!

Yes, dear family and friends, once upon a time l'il Kim and Kerri were indeed....little. And now, suddenly, they are all somewhere in their '30's! AND....Kerri just received a Master's degree in psychology from Catholic University in Washington!

Kerri and her dear mom, Pat's sister, Elizabeth! Great pic, huh!

Kerri with her brother, Sean, and his beloved wife, Amanda!

And now, for the Christophers! Daughter Kelly with Pat and me...honoring our beloved daughter Kimberly. Uhhh, Doctor Kimberly. (Kim received her doctoral degree in physical therapy from Mercy College in NYS).

Melts my heart...

Kimberly and her beloved Andy!


l-r: Aunt Elizabeth, uhhh...Dr. Kim, Pat and our beloved daughter Kelly!




Ahhh, there's nothing like ...family living! What if I were still back in my monastery...and Pat in her convent! The very thought gives me an emotional ache....of loneliness!

Thanks, dear Lord, for your loving Providence!
