Prom Time is Family Time

I had the great fortune and opportunity earlier this evening to spend time with my lovely granddaughter, Danielle, getting ready for her high school prom. Proud GranAngela is at her side.  This is a landmark event for all of our families.  My family, including her "Auntie Wendy", my brother, Garcia, sister in-law, Joyce and nephew, Aubrey, who remembers every birthday and milestone in Danielle's 18 year-old life; her dad, my son Dan's family, including my wonderful daughter in-law, Natalie, Pop Pop (big Dan), Earlyn, and Uncle Brenton; her fantastic mom, Yolanda's family.  We surely missed her maternal grandmom, Vanessa, tonight.  She would have been beaming and joyous, just as I was, to see how well Danielle has done.  Then, there's big brothers, Terrence and Anthony and Sage, Danielle's 4 year old niece and stepdad, Aaron.  Missing, but not forgotten were Mommie Phronie, Daddy Garcia, Big Mommy and Big Daddy, the great grandparents, who would have been overjoyed to see her.  We're all so proud and happy, Danielle! Love from GranAngela
