Yet another topic I can't believe we don't have already.

 

Lots of folks here are parents, and quite a few grandparents, too. How does the life-changing GD experience affect your life with the younger generations? What values do you try to transmit, and how's that turning out?

Hi Family!

I'm new to the forum but I've been around for a long while. Raising two little girls ages 5 and 2 (scary!). They have been to a few shows and they love every minute of it. I love taking them and showing the next generation how the world could really be. I just wanted to say hi and thanks for having a place to come to when I'm feeling homesick!

Daughter's Wedding

My oldest daughter got married this last Saturday and it was the only wedding I've ever been to that played Grateful Dead all night. I had a real good time! Will never forget dancing with her to "Bertha" and a whole lot of other songs. She looked like an angel in her white dress, my hippie angel. At the start of the partying, I told the DJ's that "my daughter was requesting more GD songs be added to the list" - they laughed at me and said she told them I would probably say something like that. She knows me so well. Her list was so long as it was and it lasted until midnight. That has to be the best wedding I've ever been to!

thanks guys-keep it up!

hmmm....I like Keelin...thankx brothers and sisters btw :) My goal is to have something super meaningful but uncommon...every deadhead I know has a kid named Cassidy...beautiful name but too common. I hadn't thought of Rider...thats a list maker! Mason and Hunter are too common these days....if I can't come up with a good GD name I think a nature/hippie name would be second in line....I like Canyon....sw...thats funny that you say you are reading through song titles I have the complete annotated lyrics book right next to me!!! Keep them coming guys...this is a fun conversation anyways :) Love n light

I don't think...

Sunshine Garcia Becker is any relation, before this takes on a life of its own...

Sunshine Kesey is Kesey's daughter.

Garcia's daughters are Heather, Annabelle, Theresa (Trixie), and Keelin.
