Merry Christmas 2015
Merry Christmas 2015
2015
Its time for another exciting yearly update from the Geddie Family! I know you can
hardly wait! We may just send this newsletter in lieu of Christmas Cards this year
(we were late purchasing cards), so if the newsletter arrives and it is not inside a
card this is all you get.
Youll notice our update is grandchild centric as we have unilaterally decided this is
what people are most interested in. (If our daughters and their husbands want to
get in on the act, they can write their own newsletters.)
Ay Caramba! Grandchild number six! Nora
Dycus was born to Nicole and Nathaniel on
Cinco de Mayo (hence the Spanish theme in
this paragraph). She is yet another perfect
grandchild whose laid back personality
gives her parents a reprieve from the high
activity level of her two older brothers.
Brother Colin (age: 4) has started preschool and is already at the top of his class
or so we like to think. He enjoys school
but gets bored with the repetition (I already know that!). Brother Carson (age: 2)
is happy to have Colin in school so he can get more attention. (Ahhh, sibling rivalry!
No home is complete without it!) Carson is more physically inclined than verbal and
prefers to express himself by crashing his body into things including his
grandparents and then laughing. At this point were thinking medical school or law
school for Colin and Lucha Libre (Mexican professional wrestling he already has
the costume) for Carson.
Penny Franks (age: will be 2 in February), daughter of Robin and
Bryan, is growing fast as well. She keeps her Mom and Dad on
their toes by testing every limit they place on her. She has
figured out being cute allows you to get away with almost
anything.
Robin: Penny, dont stand on that chair!
Penny: Looks Robin in the eye, smiles, slowly stands up and
exclaims with eyes wide Wow! - like she has accomplished
some great new deed.
Penny likes to figure out how things work and is fascinated by all
things mechanical. We are sure she gets that from her Dad
(Marine Biologist/scientist) vs. her Mom (English major).
Hope this Christmas finds you able to spend time with family and friends. As you
gather with loved ones, remember the reason for the season Jesus Christ.
