We drove to this small village called Schull yesterday so that I could meet my Great Granny Ross. Her first name is Helen and she is Grandpa's Mummy and Maman's Granny.
Apparently all my Great Grandparents on Maman's side lived in Schull just down the road from each other when Maman was my age and so Grandpa built a house for him and Granjay which ended up being their holiday House that they used to go to every summer for July & August. That must have been such fun for Maman, Tata Emilie, Tonton Daniel and Uncle Ben. Schull is also the place where Daddy & Maman got married :-)
Great Granny Ross lives in the hospital now. Sadly she didn't seem to know who any of us were and she never did any talking but you could tell that she really wanted to hold me in her arms because she managed to get her arm out from under her covers and stretched it out so Maman could lie me against her. I actually started getting hungry and ended up doing my weird kissing thing up against Great Granny's cheek while I was in her arms which made her give me the biggest smile. She really has a lovely smile.
Here's a photo of me with Great Granny Ross and Maman leaning in. The other photo is of me on Schull pier - Daddy & Maman insist it's much nicer when the sun is shining!!!
