185 Years

I'm in Germany these days celebrating the birthdays of my two precious grandmothers. Monday last week was my final day at work, and before going on my big trip, I didn't want to miss these special occasions back home.

So my grandmothers are alltogether 185 years now - what a blessing! Last week, we had a nice celebration with my maternal grandmother, who turned 90; and since Wednesday, I'm staying with my 95-year old paternal grandmother. I'm grateful that I still have both of them, and it's a blessing that I was able to see them before my departure. Tomorrow, I'll be headed back to Brussels, and after two days of preparation time, I'm going to take off for Bolivia...

With grandmother number one...

and number two!
