Thanksgiving… what do I give thanks for? Oh my! The list is endless… Most recently I have to say for that dear, sweet, little, babygirl who attended her first Thanksgiving today.
She arrived in this world weighing 10 lbs even, after a 24 hour ordeal that ended with a c-section delivery. I sent out a few e-mails with this… that way back in the spring, when I went to work and told the girls in the Culture Lab that I was going to be a grandmother, one of the women who has grandchildren who are nearly adults now, said, "You know…everyone has a hole in them that they don’t even know is there until they have a grandchild to fill it." I have to smile while I say, "Tis true, tis true…"

About Teresa Cypher
I came into the world a creator of stories.
Having been born into a litter, the 7th of 8 children in a farming family, I've spent most of my life writing (escapism) stories in my head. My daydreams, as it turns out, are actually fiction in the making.
From the time I was a little girl, I was a thinker, spending any time I could find to be alone--the bastion of undisturbed thoughts,--dreaming of other worlds and of fairy-tale love. My earliest influences were Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, Star Trek, and Star Wars. Yep... I write SFR. Science Fiction Romance.
I live with my husband in a humble house in the middle of a tall stand of hardwoods, bordered by soybean and cornfields, in western Pennsylvania. Mother of three adult children, and "Grammie" to five beautiful grandchildren, I revel in family gatherings and celebrations. My husband and I care for our gardens at home--our little corner of heaven, take care of the dogs, the cats, and the chickens. We like to have a glass of wine at sunset and watch the stars come out.
Tis true indeed! Congratulations!
Happy Holidays Willow…I tried twice leaving you my Christmas card, once here and once in your guestbook. I guess Windows Live doesn\’t allow posting of HTML in comments. Hmmmm…myspace does. I guess you\’ll just have to visit my page to see it. You have a very happy holiday stretch here, and make it a safe one, and remember, don\’t drink & drive…I might be staggering across the street and you could hit me, lol.
