Vahan, the son of Damon's cousin Garo, was participating in a championship spelling bee on Friday. He was the top speller from his middle school (amazing to think that a three year-old Vahan was a ring bearer in our wedding!) and moved on to participate in a competition of over 100 schools. Of all the words in the dictionary, the first word Vahan was asked to spell was "giraffe." Pretty amazing. This story brings a smile to my face whenever I think about it....signs of Granty really are everywhere.

ReplyDeleteJust wanted you to know that I get your posts by e-mail EVERY day and read them faithfully. You are such a great writer and make Granty alive to me every day. I am so, so sorry for your loss and after I read what you write, I immediately say a prayer for you, Damon and Alexa and also tell Granty to heal your hearts.
