Visiting Great Grand-mom

Today was a big day in our house. We brought together two very important people for the first time.

Alex took his first out-of-town trip and found himself transported to Philadelphia where he got to meet his great grandmother, Francis Cohen. She's the only adult in his direct line that had yet to meet the little monkey, because she couldn't make it to his bris. She's 95-1/2 years old and not mobile, so a quick trip to Brooklyn two-weeks ago was not in the cards.

The 95-year age span between Francis & Alexander made the connection all the more poignant. She's seen a lot in those years, so when she talks about how special Alex is, it seems pretty credible.

He seemed to think that she's pretty special too. But, what does he know? ;~)
