Recently, my daughter told me that she is expecting a baby. This will be my first grandchild, so needless to say, I was happy...."OH MY GOD!!!!! YOU'RE HAVING A BABY?!?!" was my understated reaction. I then, like many grandmothers before me, started to plan the baby shower. Trust me, this is nothing new for me. Hell, I remember the day she was born and the doctor said, "congratulations, you have a healthy baby girl"
My reaction? "Ohhhhh, she will look so beautiful on her wedding day."
Anyways, when my daughter told me, I asked her when I could start sharing the news and she told me I couldn't post on FB.....I of course, respect her wishes so I did not post on FB. I sent private messages to my friends and family. See? total respect.
So, yeah, I'm going to be a grandma. I have to admit, I always figured I would be 50 or so when my first grandchild would arrive. At least, that was the plan....plans, of course, don't mean much when the universe decides to act.
This child is such a blessing, to both sides of my daughters family and we are, of course, all very excited.
I'm already looking at Ugg boots.
A blog documenting my life, school, family, work and my conversion process. This should be fun.
