How Many Are Grandparents?

[soblessed53]

I am 3 times, one 4 yr. old granddaughter who is such fun,I love to hear her stories.A 16 yr. old granddaughter who is now interested in boys and driving,but she used to spend every other weekend with me,going to festivals,bowling and just being my little buddy. My 14 yr. old grandson lives in TN,so I only get to see him once a year when my daughter and her husband can come home for vacation. I love this shirt that says "If I Knew Grandchildren Were Such Fun,I Would Have Had Them First",LOL! They truly are such a joy. to everyone's grandkids!

Do I have more than everyone else with nine?
Only Aidan age 4 lives close enough to see very often. His mom and dad have been teaching him to use coasters to protect the furniture. He recently was looking all around for one and told his mom that he needed a roller coaster.

Migs, what sort of cute things have your grandspiders been saying?

I live with 2 of my grandies (Matthew Richard and Bridget) and upstairs from us live 3 more (Cody, Adam and Amy). I'm lots happier now living with my family than living alone, which I did for awhile. It's nice to have your own place but right now it's just not for me. I miss the kids so much.

A grandspider has returned! It's in Ocky's web! Oh, this is a day of rejoicing!

I just squeek into this thread at age 50. I consider myself a beginner senior citizen. LOL

No grandchildren, hope to someday. My only child is only 17.

 

[Spudgrandma]

I have 5. We waited forever and thought we were never going to me grandma and grandpa and then we had 5 in 20 months. The oldest (and only girl) just turned 2 in September. They are so much fun, just wish they lived closer.

I just noticed this thread and could not pass up a chance to brag.

I have one five month old grandson. His name is Tatum...but has been dubbed "Tatertot". This baby smiles more than any child I have every seen....he is always happy.
