Thanks for checking out my blog, it's right from the heart.
I don't know if you have a grand child, perhaps expecting one, maybe yur best friend has one, maybe your sister or brother has one, but I am here to tell you that until you have your very own grand baby you will not understand the felling.
It's warm, it's all about love, it brings tears to your eyes. I have heard from others how wonderful and terrific it is, but trust me, there are no words to describe the feeling. It's one of those life's experiences that only you know what it feels like.
I thought I had a glimpse of it when my best friends grand daughter was born in January 2006. Even that did not come close to what it is all about. In April of 2006 I found out I was going to be a grand mother. It was all a big shock, I never expected it. Soon enough we learned the baby was to be a girl. They decided on a name, Sarah Rose, named after both her great grandmothers. On December 12, 2006 Sarah Rose was born. There was a problem with the delivery, it was a secarian, things were touch and go, but she came out happy and healthy. The first time I held her in my arms she was barely 10 minutes old. I will never forget that feeling, it was like I could not believe my eyes. She was just perfect, and beautiful, and she looked exactly like her Mom, my daughter. Wow, my daughter had a daughter. It was overwhelming and I was speachless.
Sarah Rose is now 6 months old. Oh, by the way, that is Sarah Rose in the picture with me. She stopped in at the office to visit last Friday. She loves hats, hugs and has just learned what a KISS is. She opens her mouth and sticks out her tounge and pulls your face close to hers. They are warm, wet messy kisses, and you just can't get enough of them. She laughs and the more kisses she gets the more she laughs. She holds your hand now, eats teething biscuits, holds her bottle and she always reacts to music. She babbles in baby talk, she smiles and laughs, she sings with her baby einstein tapes and I'm pretty sure she knows me when she sees me.
I hope tht when the day comes, if it has not yet happened, you have as much joy from your grand baby as I do.
