[Magdalen] Assorted Grandmotherly Prayers, and a little mild boasting

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Oh Jay, I too missed this Grandmotherly post... so wonderful that Zaccheus, 
Alley, j-c-Boogie, Julianna  and dear baby Pearson have you in their lives 
to ask for our prayers (and then welcome rejoicing for those who are healthy 
now).
I will pray for all your grands and for you too dear Grandma J.

love
Lynn (otherwise fairly distracted for last two weeks between Easter and this 
past Sunday's wedding of my son Nathan and his dear Ali... more on that 
later)

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
