ABOUT ME
Hello. To various folks I am Neat’nee, Mom, Grandma Neta, Gramma, Aunt Neta, Aunt Noni, Aunt Neno, and Aunt Neto (lots of varieties from little nieces and nephews). To some I’m more like “Didn’t you used to be my teacher?” or “Don’t I know you from someplace?” To you, perhaps, I am a Fellow Blogger. Not “fellow” like a male or a guy, but “fellow” like a companion or an adventurer. I would choose to be Grandma Blogger, and have you pull up a chair, my website before you, while I tell you of some days of yore. I have experienced life much differently than most of you. It was and is a good life. I hope to share nuggets of appreciation for those who have gone before me and those who come after me. By necessity you are among those who come after me and I will tell you of those who came before. Once upon a time in a little house on a prairie - oops, change that lest I commit plagiarism - and change that “house on the prairie” to “dugout on the prairie.” So my story begins...
Sweet aroma 
Yes, adorable! ❤ And I love the name Oliver.
I know of no one who has that name, but it is rich in history. Thanks for the comment.
Congratulations! It is amazing how tiny they are.
Absolutely mind boggling, f you try to think it out. Philosophers be cautious. All from one cell with some DNA. Yikes, I’ll leave the questions with the Lord. 😀
God bless him!!!
Thank you, Cindy. Sometimes when I pray for a member of my family, I mention that member plus all others the he represents. So I join you in praying for all the little new borns that they have peace, security, love – and a teaching that ill lead them accept Christ for their security in heaven. Be it so, Lord Jesus.
AMEN!!!!!! 🥰
congratulations~
Thank you. I will get to see him at Thanksgiving time.
What an amazing blessing. Congratulations!
Thank you.
Congratulations! If this is why we missed you last week, then you are forgiven. 🙂 But seriously, cute kid.
No, last week I scooted a sofa with my hip. My hip became quite angry. I was mostly in bed about three days. Finally my son gave me a muscle relaxer that helped. Things have gone smoothly today – mostly. Thanks for liking my little one. I haven’t seen him yet.
Reblogged this on ronovanwrites and commented:
Visit and give the lady some congratulations.
Thanks, Ronovan. I have had some new contacts. Helpful and appreciated.
Beautiful and thank you. My heart joins with yours for all the little ones. May they indeed find their Way to ALL that gives life meaning. Blessings!
Yes, yes. May they choose to grow up in God’s plan for them. Thank you.
PRECIOUS!!!!
Actually I thought my baby days were past. Grandchildren seemed to have done what they were going to do and stopped. No consultation with me. Then out of the blue I find great grandchildren were beginning a new garden patch. 😀
Your lineage keeps sprouting
Aw! Congratulations!
All smiles here. Thanks.
Congratulations on the new arrival.
Here’s wishing that the blessed smile always stays glued to his lips. 🙂
Thank you for the time to add to my day. Love those comments. I’ll hop over to see if I can find your blog.
Oh wow Oneta and He has a smile too! God Bless you all!
Somebody had to have instant reflexes to catch that. And thanks..
What an adorable baby…Love his name. 💕
Thank you. I haven’t known an Oliver before except via history.
So cute!
Thank you. I hope to see him next week.
Congratulations on your great-great-grandchild! What a cute baby. 😊
Thank you. Everybody loves to have their new one complimented. 😀
How adorably cute! Congratulations.
Blessings to you and yours~
Good to see you checking in. And thanks. How can anyone miss with a baby. They are all adorable. But this one seems a bit more so. 😀
I know! They are just too sweet for words. He IS so cute!! 💖
All smiles here.
I can imagine!!!
Have a wonderfully blessed Thanksgiving! 🦃🙏
Blessings back to you.
Thank you!
That’s amazing Oneta. My heartiest congratulations to you on becoming great great grand mother.
It has been good getting here. 😀
Gorgeous! A living art piece. Great photo. Congratulations! Love the haiku too😀
Pat
Thank you much. I have never given thought before to the fact that those kinds of pictures were really babies! Somebody’s baby. Sweet.
Somebody’s baby, you’re right. I usually just think of them as a really cool photo:) Can you imagine the baby waking up in the middle of the shot and start wiggling. All bets are off:)
Pat
Gorgeous! A living art piece. Great photo. Congratulations! Love the haiku too😀
Pat
Double the comment; double the smiles. 😀

Thank you.
So adorable; congratulations on your new arrival. May God continue to bless you with more grandchildren.
Sweet words you are blessing me with. Thank you.
Congratulations, and what a wonderful start of my Monday to see this beautiful little baby. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you, Alice. I plan to see Oliver on Thanksgiving Day. It is be my joy. I went over to you blog and read your findings about Nicky. You do a lot of research for your posts. Thanks. I didn’t find a place to respond over there.
Oneta, that is correct. That site attracts a lot of opinions and out of respect for the family members, and my sanity, I decided not to allow comments. Instead I encourage people to respond on social media. Twitter has lively case discussions!
