Here’s me with my little buddy, granddaughter Lyla, at the orange grove. At 18 months, she is keeping us all hopping. I had the treat of taking a nap with her, taking her over to visit Auntie Liz’s chickens and also watching her play.
She, along with her brother and sister, add an indescribably delightful element to my life. I feel privileged to be their grandmother.
I am a native Texan who has lived for the past 27 years in Los Angeles. I am a published author of both short memoir and fiction, a Pushcart nominee, a nationally award-winning writing coach, an editor, as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. In addition, I am the mother of three grown daughters of whom I am extremely proud, a grandmother of three darling children and the wife of a man I still love after 41 years.
