Sheryll:

Yes, that is indeed Nyssa on the far left. Andy is
beside her, then me, my father and mother, sister
Shawnda, my nephew Austin, brother-in-law Malcolm
(called Beano by everyone). In the front are Shawnda
and Beano's youngest two, Kailan and Makayla. IIRC,
that photo was taken about 2 years ago. Nyssa would
have been 18, Austin 12, Kailan and Makayla 5 and 7
respectively. Since Kailan was about 2, he and Makayla
have always been the same size. It's a family joke
that she'll be in a booster seat in the car until
she's in university. She's very tiny.

Kailan is the source of most of our family anecdotes,
nicely replacing older brother Austin. Kailan is
celebrating (belatedly) his birthday tomorrow. The
children will be decorating their own small cakes.
When my mother said is sounded like fun and asked if
she could decorate one as well, he gave her a very
serious look and said, "But Grammy, you're too *old*
to be a kid!" :-D

I am pretty fond of that one. It brings back such
delightful memories. :)
