My mother was right

[vraiblonde]

Being a grandparent is so much more fun than being a parent.

So far I've taken young Riggs, age 18 mos, out to dinner three times and he's been a joy. Tonight he's spending the night so his mother can go out boozing with her pals and no problems. We had dinner without incident, then played outside, got a bath, read and snuggled, and he went out like a light.

I do not remember his mother or uncle being so easy to get along with.

I taught him "Who's the King?" He replies, "Elvis!"

I saw the pic of you and him. You were glowing.

My mother was never very affectionate towards me but her grandbabies(my kids) get tons of hugs and kisses.

Yeah, if we could only have had them first.

Both sets of grandparents passed by the time I was 13yr old-I miss them to this day. They always made me feel so special and loved. Even though I saw them almost every weekend, they made it a big deal whenever they saw me. I was truly blessed, my 3 brothers and 3 sisters too!

this is so true, our new grandbaby lived with us for 9 months and then he moved out of state,( his daddy is in iraq and him and mommy went to get a house and have it ready for him when he returns). But my husband and i still feel so lost , thank goodness for computer video cams! but it doesn't take the place of those little hugs...
