Memories, essays, and random thoughts I'm leaving for my granddaughter and maybe a stranger or two

About me

I am starting this during the beginning of the second Trump Presidency. My daughter is pregnant with her first child, my first grandchild. Although I have always been left-leaning, she has gradually become more center right, and she has told me I can never discuss politics or religion with her child. I will respect her boundaries... and in case I die before my granddaughter is an adult who might be interested, I want to leave her something. Maybe it will matter to her one day to know me as an ancestor-- maybe it will give her courage when she needs it. These are my love letters to her. 

The art is mine, mostly amateur watercolors.
