My Audience of One

If you have graduated to grandparent, congratulations and welcome to the best part of parenting life.

The purpose of My Audience of One is to inform grandparents about the joys and perils of grand-parenting. I share my own experiences, stories about grandparents and great grandparents doing unique activities with their grandchildren, and, when needed, solicit advice from experts.

 I don’t profess to be the most knowledgeable grandparent; I am learning as I grow. I am a grandmother who adores her four grandchildren ranging from two-and-a-half to nine. I understand blended families because I started as a step grandma and transformed into a grandma.

I come from a long line of fantastic grandparents who taught me to love each grandchild individually—and to keep my opinions on child-rearing to myself.

 In the past six years I have written and illustrated 18 picture and board books for my grandchildren. Each creates a topic, then I turn the idea into a picture book—for My Audience of One.

Thank you for finding my website and reading my blog.
