"I have the good fortune to be a grandfather. Twelve times. Oh, sure I loved being a father. There were so many of us Brownings-Patti and I have five children-so much to keep track of with the comings and goings of all of them through the years, that I never really thought much about becoming a grandfather until the reality of it was almost upon me. I was unprepared for the emotional power of seeing that first tiny member of our next generation. I often wonder exactly what it is about the grandchildren that moves me so."
-Edmond Browning, author and author of A Year of Days with the Book of Common Prayer
