Another Grandchild On The Way

[Ursa Major]

My second daughter, who had a baby girl this May, just told us that she is expecting a 'surprise package' for July 30th of next year! Even though it wasn't planned, and she had planned on going back to work next year, they are happy. They'll manage somehow, I'm sure.

That is really funny. When her older sister was six months old, I got pregnant with her, because I believed that you can't get pregnant while you're breastfeeding (some older women had told me that). She doesn't have that excuse, but she is following my example, as the age difference between her babies will be exactly the same as the one between her and her older sister.

So, she will be eight months pregnant at her younger sister's wedding (in June). At least she will be able to be there.

I am going to have eight grandchildren at the age of 54, not bad. And I hope there'll be many more to come.

Good Lord!

You will need to grow two extra arms and another lap at this rate!

Seriously, Congratulations! Hope it come healthy and happy

Congratulations!

Congratulations.

I always told my sons, that I did not want to be a grandmother before 40, obviously they have listened too well, as I am nearly 50 and no grandchildren!

I am so envious of you, but I am so happy at the same time.

My grandmother, who lived till she was ninety based her success in her later years on the amount of granchildren she had, and then the amount of great grandchilren. She was so proud of each and every one of us and took pride in telling everyone how many there were out there.

All the best
