Helping others discover their roots
“There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: One is roots, the other is wings.” Teaching children values and giving them the opportunity to excel is essential to good parenting. However, I feel I must also provide my children (and myself) insight into the ones who came before us: our ancestors whose lives and stories have shaped us into who we are. This is my journey; these are their stories…

Tales of a Family 
Is too early to offer up a (not too) tall tale? What it lacks in credibility height, it has in vividness, public exposure and comic relief. I’ve been terribly distracted of late, but hope you find this short tale earns the, “surly you didn’t actually do this” award for the week. You’ll can test drive it @:

Hello Ann Marie. I think I have a “curve ball” for your early June. I did not have all the facts straight until just a few days ago, but once in-hand, I was able to finish and post a new story. Gotta admit, I found myself thinking, who do I know that might have enjoyed this crazy day and your name came to mind. Let me know if I was right, but otherwise I hope you enjoy the story of: https://garyawilsonstories.wordpress.com/helping-her-reach-higher/

oh my, I went from smiling, to sitting on the edge of my seat, to crying, to thinking about what a kind and wonderful person you are! Gary A. Wilson, I am blessed to call you my blogging buddy!

Hi Ann Marie.
Thanks for this feedback, but I would have argued that I’m the fortunate buddy in this relationship. You have always been so kind to this new student of blogging.

But you should have answered my question. Would you have been willing to try this experience with me? I could have promised a memory you would never forget.

absolutely!!!! With four brothers and the only girl in my neighborhood that would take a dare, you bet! My poor parents didn’t know what to do with their daredevil daughter! Too bad, we never crossed paths while living in Northern California. I am sure we would have given our parents a few more gray hairs! 😉
