Reason to Smile

By

2008 was great! Well, some of it! I am positive that the best part of the year was getting a grand baby. There were days when my spirits were a little low, and just going over to see her if only for a minute was the highlight of many a day! Some evenings her parents were both so visibly exhausted that my husband and I would only stay for a few minutes and just peeked at our precious sleeping grandchild. Other visits were longer and we could take turns holding this precious bundle of joy.

This smile was for me! She came to help make Christmas cookies and candy with her mother.

First I gave her a 4.6 # bag of chocolate chips and then a kiss on the cheek! Then I pulled out my camera and shot this picture!

Her parents are spoiling her rotten! They are so excited to be parents! If all parents loved and adored their baby like they do it would be a better world for everyone - Here's to health wealth and happiness!

Hi Marilyn - There is nothing better to celebrate than the beginning of a new life.  We enjoyed our children (well, lol most of the time) and we will enjoy our grand children even more.  After all, a grandparent's right is to spoil their grand children and then give them back to their parents.  (Just a bit of "pay back"  lol)

I am very happy for you!  I am not a grandmother yet but love my friends little ones.  There is nothing like playing around with them until you are tuckered out then handing them back to the parents.  I look forward to spoiling my own someday.

Jon, "Most of the time" are the key words here! I know what you mean. I hope she gets a brother or sister in a year or two so she's not TOO spoiled rotten.

Melody, Thank-you! Speaking of being tuckered out, I think 20's is a great age to be parents because you have all the energy needed to be on the run and on your feet from sun up til past sun down keeping up with what starts as a bundle of joy and turns into a bundle of energy!
