G is for Godson Ian!! The tall fellow in these pictures is Pat's and my godson, Ian Graham. The top photo is from Jan. 2008 when he was on vacation from Harrow the boy's school in England. He has gone to school there for 4 years now and loves it. One of only a few Americans who attend. He is a real sharp cookie. (And lots of fun too!)
This is Godson Ian with his dad, grandpa and someone I don't know in the red shirt. At 16 he's the tallest one among all the oldsters!! Ian is an expert marksman and was on a national award winning skeet team when he was just 12 years old.
Godson Ian is also into rowing and went to a camp in New England last summer for rowing. I was Ian's "nanny" when he was a baby and toddler, so I get great satisfaction in seeing what a fabulous young man he has become. Once I figure out how to scan pictures I'll do a post on Ian as a little fellow. He was an answer to prayers for us when he came into Patrick's and my life. We were so honored to be asked by his folks to become his godparents. One special boy. One special Godson!
