Hello from Switzerland
It’s a beautiful Thursday morning
We spent from 6:30 am Tuesday to 7:30 am Wednesday on 4 different flights to get to Geneva. De & André picked us up there. The 2 hour drive to Sierre was gorgeous! Pictures don’t do it justice. Zoom in on those terraced mountainsides covered with vineyards!
So am I!
See ya tomorrow.
Love, JanBeek
Mmmm

Starting September
Starting September simply
Steady steps and sure
Waiting, watching, walking
September thoughts are pure
Great-granddaughter grins

Fund-raiser fun and frolicky

Dogs & Baby Boys
Every morning I interact on WhatsApp with my daughter, De, in Switzerland and bonus daughter, Laina, who lives near Baltimore. We exchange love, lives, pictures of our loved ones, and weather reports.
Leo’s parents are happy about sharing his face on social media. Laina, his grama, knows how to make him smile. He’s such a happy baby.
And that baby up there looks a lot like Ethan did at that age. He’ll be 2 end of October. We hope to go there to celebrate with him. We were there for his one week birthday! But two years is a long time not to be able to see your great-grandson. He won’t know us 😩
It’s not like he doesn’t have enough toys and chew sticks of his own!
Kenny loves Yak Sticks. Do you know about them?
Only thing harder to train than a pup might be a baby… or a husband?
The dog trainer told us “No” is not understood. It’s just paying attention and giving his positive attention for negative behavior. Oh my! We’ve spent two years reinforcing bad habits. Help!
Enjoy babies & dogs? I sure do!
Time to Climb
We did it! Couldn’t look at that boathouse and not experience it!!
Meantime, Marcie sat up there and watched us.
Such a pretty day in SoddyDaisy, TN
Wish you were here!
Thursday Beauty
The day was bright and sunny
How did you spend your day!?
Love, JanBeek ❤️
Wonderful Family Time
The end of 2025
Found us loving life
Spending it with family
Avoiding stress and strife
All should be so blessed
To have such happy love
We don’t take it for granted
Such love is from above!
Love, JanBeek
Fun with Family
We had fun with family last weekend.
We celebrated our great-granddaughter,
Charlotte’s first birthday
with an outing to the Olive Garden
in Bozeman, Montana.
What a cutiepie, huh?
Her brother, Xander (almost seven)
and her sister, Sienna (4)
received stuffed animals
as special gifts from my friend, Ted.
So kind of him! The kids loved ’em!!
Xander enjoyed sharing Charlotte’s new books with her.
The children’s mom (our granddaughter, Hope)
and Pam (the kids’ paternal grandmother)
made it possible for us all to be together.
We’re so grateful!
1 Timothy 5:8
“But if anyone does not provide for his relatives,
and especially for members of his household,
he has denied the faith
and is worse than an unbeliever.”
Oh my! What an important scripture, huh?
The operative word is “provide.”
There are many ways to do so…
and having fun with them
on special occasions
is definitely one of them!
Tell me about fun you have had with family recently!
Fun with Family!
I’m sending my Love to you today.
I pray you have an opportunity today
(or soon)
to have
FUN WITH FAMILY!
With hugs,
JanBeek
Talk to Me!
Today’s JetPack prompt asks what I like to talk about.
What topics do you like to discuss?
Can you guess?
Yup, GG – Great-Grammy, that’s me!
And below is my granddaughter, Hope,
with three of my five great-grandchildren.
Tonight Bob & I met Charlotte
(11 days new)
for the first time!
Psalm 127:3-5
ESVBehold,
children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children of one’s youth.
Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them!
Behold, I fill my quiver with them!
Holding this contented little “Peanut” was such a thrill!
We cooed with one another.
What do you think she had to say?
That’s a topic to discuss!
As some of you know,
Charlotte had a scary beginning
as she was transported by ambulance
back to the hospital
when she was just two days new.
Thank God she’s ok now.
Thank you again for your prayers.
Ask me about my 7 grandchildren.
Ask me about my 5 great-grandchildren.
What do you want to know?
Do you have an hour or two?
My sweatshirt says,
“Kids Make the Day Brighter!”
one-year-old Mable Iris.
She makes days brighter, too.
Her chair is our gift for her first birthday.
I think she likes it, don’t you?
Check out the place where
you can get personalized gifts
for children of all ages,
9 minutes to 90 years!
My former student, friend, Leslie,
will cater to your personalized wishes.
http://www.KidoodlesInc.com
The owner of that business
is Leslie, a clever young lady
who was my kindergarten student
in 1972!
Yes, do go and give her your business!
You’ll love exploring her inventory.
(That’s another topic I love to discuss:
my former students and what they do today!)
… But nothing beats grands and great-grands!!
Here is Cosette,
another adorable great-granddaughter
who lives in California.
Isn’t she beautiful?
How about you?
What’s a topic you love to discuss?
Let’s sit and chat awhile!!
Thanks for visiting
JanBeek
today.
Tell me what you like to talk about.
See ya tomorrow.
Let’s have some Happy Talk!!
