Guess Who Is Going To Be A Great Grandmother !!!!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with RE/MAX Executive Realty - Happily Retired 104763

I've known for a few weeks that my granddaughter, Brittany, and her husband, Normand, are expecting their first baby, but I've had very strict orders not to write a blog post yet.  Well, all "stops" have been lifted, and I can finally share with everyone how excited I am.  

The thought of being a great grandmother is unbelievable. I'm so excited for them and for my daughter, Tammy.  I can remember when she was pregnant with Brittany and how excited I was then.  Now, she can experience how wonderful it feels to be a grandparent.  My mother will be a great, great grandmother, and she still remembers this information being shared with her.  I hope it continues through June of next year.

Brittany is due on June 26th, and what an exciting summer that will be for everyone in the family. Now I can start shopping for baby clothes and fun things.  

Great grandmother.... I think I'll workout for an extra half hour today....there's something about that title that makes me want to run an extra lap, too!!!!!

How fun.  Nothing like a new baby to bring extra added life and fun into your world.  I love the cupcakes.

Wow how exciting, it's so wonderful being a Grandmother and so it will be twice as much fun being a "great" grandmother.

You are going to be an awesome great-grandmother, as you are grandmother and mother. I know you'll have lots of fun.

I truly envy you Barbara Todaro as I started my family very late so I may not even live long enough to see my 1st grandchild.

You GO, GGM Girl!! June, possibly means a Gemini. You will get "twins" out of it maybe! (My dad was a Gemini and my hero, smart, generous, fun-loving and never completely grew up!)

Congrats~

How exciting for you! I have three great grand baby boys and they are just so much fun. They got to spend the night on Thanksgiving Day. We had an awesome time. 

I am sorry I have not commented on any of your posts in the last few months but it was really busy in my area. Then this month it went to NADA. Hopefully, it will pick up again really soon

My sis is also going to be a great grandmother next year. She is very excited - and young like you. Although, when I call her great granny she gives me the evil eye. Lol.

I'd do the same with the name great "granny"....there's something about the word granny that reminds me of the Clampetts from the Beverly Hillbillies!!!

While I have a couple grandchildren who could certainly provide me with greatgrandchildren, life's circumstances haven't brought that about yet.  I can imagine the joy you are feeling, Barbara!

I love those cupcakes!

Hi Barbara -- even with this terrific announcement, your mind turns to exercise. Now, that's what I call discipline.
