Being a Grandma


I have decided I like being a grandma, you get to play, hug, feed and even change diapers during the day and at night I get to go to my room and sleep all night while they are just next door waking up and having to feed her every two to three hours. Sometimes life is good. I do let Leanna take a nap when ever she feels the need and babysit.
During the day while Leanna is being Mommy I can come and work on my scrapbooking and cards or I can hold her for as long as I want, but I also know she needs her down time.
I think life as a grandma will suit me just fine, I can be a good support system, and when she is old enough I will have lots of things for her and I to do.
Even though this is our 5th grandchild many know the circumstances of why we don't get to see the others, we don't have to like the reasons we just keep praying for them to find the way back. And our one grandchild will always be in our hearts even though she is very much loved by another very special loving family.
Many prayers for my children may you find the peace you are looking for and for their children may they always know MIMI and PAPAW love them.
