Soooo great to see you back, Sybil. I was just thinking about you the other day and hoping all was well at your end since you hadn't been visible here in the Rain for a while. Meantime, great photo... loved it!

Sweet! I'm going through this now. My daughter lives in SC and just got married in April. If and when they decide to have a family, I'll be moving to SC. I've lived in VA my entire life so that will be a transition to me for sure. Even if they don't have a family, I'm still planning to move when my husband retired (3.5 years and counting). My daughter is an only child and wants us to move down.

Was just talking about this the other day with the mother of my daughter's boyfriend. The kids just bought a house in Michigan (guess she's not coming home anytime soon) and I've been told that a proposal is forth coming. When grandchildren appear on the scene and we pray they do, there will be some hard thoughts about moving to Ann Arbor - Anyone know a good Real Estate Professional?? ![]()

I think that you made the right choice to be close to your grandchildren, my Mom would certainly do the same!

Nina Hollander, I got busy with life and forgot how much fun blogging could be and what a nice diversion it is.

Anne Corbin, I think you will like South Carolina. It's not too terribly far from Virginia and has a lot to offer.
WOW it would be hard for this southern girl to move to Michigan no matter how cute the grandchildren Mark and Laura Anderson!
Sybil, we are in Minnesota where it's winter nearly six months out of 12. Michigan would be like a paradise vacation spot. They get snow but they don't get the bitter cold that we get. We'll see how it goes. Right now I'd be happy if they get married.
I had some friends and a church here so moving back was not a difficult Brian England

Hello Sybil, Grandchildren are so great to have around, ours are in Ohio but we talk everyweek and see them twice a year.
Will Hamm, It is nice being so close to them, our houses are about 15 minutes apart!

Hi Sybil Campbell, you certainly made the right decision. If you're able to be close to your children and grandchildren, why not? I love the picture.
Hi Sybil, Thanks for telling this sweet story. I am waiting for grandchildren, and wonder if I will be moving to be close to them.

Thanks Beth Atalay. I'm sure I made the right decision but I do miss the warm weather in Florida.
Bob Crane, It is a decision that a lot of grandparents are making currently.

You are having such fun being in the day to day lives of your grandchildren. They are precious indeed.
Debbie Reynolds,
It really is great being in their day to day lives, but I certainly understand now why God gives us our children when we are young!
I don't regret being here and being actively involved in my two younger grandchildrens' lives!
such a sweet picture you made a good choice to move closer to your grandchildren
