Just between you and me, I'm expecting my 4th Grandchild in March.
I never thought I'd have any Grandchildren as it took them 12 years to have their first, each time the emotions have been overwhelming. And when I look at my beautiful Grands I am filled to choking with love for them all. It is so special when your granddaughter puts her arms up and says, can I have a hug Granma. My heart just melts.

Dear Laura,
I can feel your happiness through the computer. How wonderful that this baby will be your first grandchild. The happiness they bring you - their laughter and joy in living is something that delights the soul and gives meaning to life. I am so thrilled for you. And Yes, I remember the first time we were told. Now there will be 3 hearts on the journey of life. Love and blessings Chris
Oh, Chris, thank you - I am almost giddy!! I just know you know how I feel!! Hugs, Laura*
What Is a Grandma?
A grandma is warm hugs and sweet memories. She remembers all of your accomplishments and forgets all of your mistakes. She is someone you can tell your secrets and worries to, and she hopes and prays that all your dreams come true. She always loves you, no matter what. She can see past temper tantrums and bad moods, and makes it clear that they don't affect how precious you are to her. She is an encouraging word and a tender touch. She is full of proud smiles. She is the one person in the world who loves you with all her heart, who remembers the child you were and cherishes the person you've become. ~Barbara Cage~
I love this, Helen. I am going to try to commit it to memory!! It is so wonderful! Thanks bunches, Laura*
Congratulations, Grandchildren are the greatest. If I had known how much fun it was to be a Grandma I would have done that first. lol.
Congratulations Laura and thanks for sharing your excellent news with us all. It's so nice to be able to share the good times as well as the other :)
I know what you mean - it is all a part of life good and not so good!! Thank you for your words!! Hugs, Laura*
Wonderful news. hugs Helen. :)

Congratulations, i can remember how we felt when we were told about our first granchild, except it was twins. I like to be called nanny, have you thought about what you would like to be called? x
Oh, I haven't thought about what I would like to be called - what a great question!! I do like nanny or nan or even gramma Laura. I need to think about that!! By the way, our two youngest are twins!! They are 21 now and they are still like sweet puppies!! I am blessed with 4 wonderful children!! Hugs, Laura*
C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S AND C E L E B R A T I O N S...... hugs S*
Congratulations! It's wonderful being a gramma - instead of the "I don't like you"s, you get the "you can do anything". Such a difference! You'll enjoy! When is she due?
