In each of these episodes, I talk with one or more of them about their lives: what makes them happy, what challenges they face . . . all in a way to see the world through their eyes.false604fc2d4-3816-5a8e-883a-ce84f88a50a9episodichttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/sisters-talk-edie-and-ellie--58299296https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58299296Sun, 14 Jan 2024 20:49:19 +0000Mark GoodeThey are eight years apart and yet they are sisters.

Isabella/Biz/Violet is LOVING school . . . .she's made some great friends and is loving her dance class. Of course, being Granddaddy, I had to ask her about the rest of her classes, and she dutifully reported in. When she told me she was taking chemistry (geez do I feel old), I told her the story of my chemistry class in high school and what I and some classmates did at the end of the year (it wasn't very nice).

We discussed what it means to turn 16 (getting her drivers license and getting a job - yeah!). When we discussed driving (she doesn't like driving near 18 wheelers on the road), I told her what happened once when I borrowed my mom's car for my paper route. The story doesn't have a happy ending.
