The Joy of the Joy's

I’m basking in the “joy” of the Joy’s this morning.  Mr. and Mrs. Liam and Katherine Maria Joy of Cambridge, England, FaceTimed with us yesterday to share that joy with us. They are expecting their first child in November.  This anticipated joy of the Joy’s will be our third great grandchild. 

Katherine Maria (aka Katie, and for me, her Grandad, aka “Katydid”) is the daughter of our beloved Rachel.  Katie is our oldest granddaughter.  We have only two, Katie and Eleni, and both, as the song goes, “light up our life.”  Matthew, Austin, Nick and Ethan, our grandsons, light up our life, too.   Our first two great granddaughters, Addison and Delaney, daughters of Rachel’s Matthew and his wife, Emily, only add to the brilliance of that light, as will the joy of the Joy’s. 


Yesterday, today, and tomorrow—all congeal (take shape or coalesce, to form a satisfying whole) in the joy of the Joy’s.
