Meet Granny T
Greetings and Salutations from Yellowstone National Park!
As the name implies I am a Granny. But I am also a mother, sister, daughter, and friend.
I started this webpage and blog to keep in touch will all the wonderful family I left behind. Hopefully, in the future I will be marketing my crafts and homemade quilts.
Please be patient with me as I develop my blogging and website building skills. I am sure you won't be disappointed!!
Lots of love & Please stay tuned for some awesome pics and dialogue xxooxxoo

Sadly, my siblings and I lost both of our parents. Our daddy passed away from a massive heart attack and we were blessed the Lord took him home quickly.
Our momma on the other hand suffered a very long illness. In her last weeks of life she was never without at least three of us by her side. She loved us so much and her love brought the five us closer together than we have ever been. She has always been the glue that held us together.
I am a Youtube addict and I found this song there which describes exactly how I felt when momma passed.
