Well, it's official!  I have entered grandparenthood, at the tender old age of 45!  LOL

I have a beautiful little grand daughter born Saturday morning.  I'm still in a bit of shock.  

I feel old...   :D

    Congrats. I just turned 45 a few weeks ago and I'm not sure how I'd handle it. What a great day it must have been!!

    Now every decision you make in this life you have to figure in on how that decision will affect your grandchild and her grandchildren. It's all about the kids.

    My parents, well my mom, was thrilled when I started dating a single mom, I think she assumed by then she wouldn't get to be a Nana!  Now she has three grankids
