Grandma's Journal My Journal I became a Grandma at the age of 49 years old. Well I was actually only 17 days from being 50. My baby girl gave me gave me my first grandchild. He was a beautiful bouncy boy. Then 2 years later she surprised me on my birthday at 5am by waking me up and telling me "Happy Birthday Mom!" Time to get up we are going to the hospital and having a baby today! I told her NO that's tomorrow. It took a little bit for her to get it through my groggy head that she was going to be giving me a birthday present! and she totally did. She gave me a dark hair beautiful little grand daughter. Now I can enjoy spoiling 2. I have decided that the best thing in the world is being a Grandma! There is nothing that come close to that! I have been married for 30 years to a man that lives for his family. He only wants the best for all of us and spoils us all! He is a good man that works hard for his dollar. We have a pretty good marriage to say the least. Well it must be if we can put up with each others faults this long! My mom who has Alzehimers lives with us and has been for almost 3 years now. She is in the finally stages of the disease and still hangs in there. She loves to grab the broom and sweep. She does this everyday, and several times a day. I keeps her busy. She will even sweep the counch or the kitchen table if you let her. My oldest daughter is going to be 34 years old this year and hasn't lived at home in 16 years. I spend as must time as I can with her. But it is never enough. She plans on coming home to live and take care of us in 7 years. I cant wait! It's my dream to have her home. She is a dear friend to me and we have a great relationship. she always tells me that I am her best friend. |

Read/Post Comments (0) I love Lighthouses, and I collect them. I added a beautiful homemade lighthouse quilt to my collection in November 2008. A friend of my oldest daughter made it for me, and she did a beautiful job. I will treasure it always. |
2009-04-08 7:03 PM Nothing much to tell about today My dad started off with teaching Pre-School. We had a nice learning day, and worked on Easter stuff.
Then it was lunch, and we played with the disnousars and watched animal planet. Then I was free the rest of the afternoon. Neil and I ran to Van's Jewlery and spoke with the Jewler who is working on our Christmas gift for Amy this year. The final cost will be $500.00 Sure hope it looks nice and will be something that she will treasurer the rest of her life, and that will be something that she can hand down when the time is right. After I talked with my sister this evening, she says I should have another one done but alot smaller for DesiRay. I told her I never thought of that, and I thought that was a wonderful idea. So that is something I will think about in the future. Dinner was homemade chili and homemade corn bread at Amy's house. It was sure good, and I don't think I have ever had corn bread that was so good! There sure wasn't much left. Amy makes the best home made chili, and I am always asking her to make it! Neil has been in and out of the house all day. He made a homemade scaffeling so he can get into our overhang on the front porch as we have bee's going into it making a nest, so we need to get it taken care of before the summer gets here. With the nice weather we have been having the grass is growing fast, and we got the lawn mover blade back today from having it sharpened. So he is moving the grass. Good thing because it was getting hard to see the dog feces in the back yard. I need to head downstairs and put some dirty clothes in the washing machine, so I am going to say goodnight, and hope all sleeps well.
