This family has been blessed with many wonderful traditions and legacies. My nieces are just beginning to understand the joy and love felt when we share these stories and experiences with the newest member of our family, Haley. Gram was the central figure of the family and the person who helped keep the traditions alive. May we all learn how special each member of the family is and that we all have something to contribute to the legacy. I wrote this book as a tribute to my grandmother, who is featured in the photo at the front of the book. Gram has since passed away, but I hope to keep the legacies going by honoring her memory and maybe starting some new traditions or legacies of my own.
