Good for you! I look forward to being a grandpa. My oldest is turning sixteen next month so I have a few years to go. But I look forward to having loads of fun with my grand children and then returning them to their parents when they (or I) have had enough.

Jack

You are right to be as proud as you are

Since you and I can relate, we ought to blog on this and make our children jealous. (Jack is ever so slow. Tell your son to grow up…..quickly, bud.) :)
We ought to blog on the trials and tribulations of raising children, the stress, the sacrifices, and follow that up with the joy of grandchildren, the blessings they are, the great fun we have with them, how much fun they are to spoil….and the joy of sending them home to their parents. :)
