Each of my kids (two sons and a daughter) have their own versions and stories growing up in coastal NC. Moving twenty miles north of Wilmington when they were small was the best thing I could do for them. Hampstead was a cross-roads, but it had some remarkable people that took a strong "liking" to my kids. It does take a village, and we were fortunate that those in the village looked out favorably for our kids. Kelly had relatives that have left a strong impression, and for the most part a favorable one, for life. Her mom, my paternal grandmother, her mother's mother, all departed their wisdom of Southern women onto her. Particularly my grandmother, whose wit, and moral observations serve the rest of us today. Her departure was sad as few like her pass our way in a lifetime. Kelly has always kept me entertained by her writings. I have all her letters that she wrote home about when she left for NC School or Science and Math, Meredith College, and Temple, even though they were fewer. She had a very active and rewarding upbringing. I hope is she will past that happiness and learning to her three, and they will enrich their parents lives as much as Kelly and her brothers did for her mother and I.
