I am Lorraine Dorman (MeMaw), 85 years old, and think of myself as a late 'bloomer'.

For years, there were three things that I always wanted to do: teach, paint, and write.

At age 46 I became a full time college student and earned my AA degree in Early Childhood Education and went on to teach for 15 years.

As for painting, I just dabbled along until my husband encouraged me to become serious about my painting.

I've done many paintings for my family, but now I have decided to make copies of my original paintings and sell them.

I also write cook books for my grandchildren, poetry, and essays. My 85 years in West Virginia and Florida have given me many things to write about.

ARE YOU MY MOTHER?






I was first introduced to this lovely book when I taught preschoolers at Riverside Park. It's about a little bird that hatched from his egg while his mother was away from the nest. He did not know what she looked like but he went looking for her. Tracy, a little girl in my class always cried when I read this story. It is now one of my three year old great- grandson's favorites. He acts out the book with his animals. If you don't have this book, get a copy and it will become one of your favorites too!
