Description
In the midst of the pandemic my family has been blessed with new life. I spoke with my Aunt Jewel about the experience of becoming a great-grandma during the outbreak. I thought I knew my aunt pretty well but this interview revealed so many things about our family that I never knew. For one thing, aunt Jewel was the first Florida Seafood Festival Queen, and there are actually 22 children in the family not 21.Participants
