I feel kind of sheepish about announcing this....sometimes I think grandparents can be a great boreLaughing but I have to say I never dreamed in 2005 after colon cancer diagnosis and then 2006 death diagnosis that I would experience this......our only daughter gave birth to a baby boy....

the emotions that i feel for this child are amazing to me....who knew old people....? really old cancer people could feel such overwhelming love again?  okay sorry have tried to upload pic but of course.....cannot....think pic is in my expressions...

love tonight to Craig...and Nana.....and Lou....thinking of you all

 

best love....mags

Nothing like becoming a grandparent...be it the first time or the 10th time!

May you and your grandson have many many years to enjoy each other.

Hugs and love,

   One of the joys of surviving 16 years was to meet my second grandchild last week. A beautiful little girl Asha Faith to go with her equally beautiful big sister Chilli Maree. My son is a lovely boy with a kind heart. It is so good to see how the kids have given he and his wife Christeen so much happiness. When you see new life it is hard to think about illness and about how bad you might feel. I can sit and watch young kids for hours it is the best medicine ever. Ron.

Congrats on our new grandbaby too.  I finished a book today ...main characters name was Asha...beautiful name!  I believe it means hope, which goes perfectly with her middle name.  Lovely choice.

They are the best!  I was hoping to be around for the first. Now I have six and the seventh is being adopted on Wednesday.

Here is to you being around for a bunch more!  You certainly deserve it!

Mags, I know what you mean!  My twin girl Grandbabies will be 8 months old on the 27th of Jan.  They are my first and only so far.  I just want to be around to see them grow up.  Nothing sweeter than a baby.  Enjoy him!

Well, you did say you felt sheepish, and surely you didn't mean that you thought it inappropriate to share such joy here on the forums, right?!!

There is no better place than here, amoung your friends, to share your good news, and for us to rejoyce with you. 

Congratulations! I think one very lucky little boy has come to earth and found himself not only good parents but a wonderful Grandmother.

Enjoy every minute with your grandbaby. My granddaughter is the light of my light right now. I have a grandson on the way in March, so I'm really excited. Give that baby lots of hugs and kisses.

A new life in the family is such an amazing thing.  At least for this old lady, it makes being in the autumn of life quite acceptable.

Congrats to you all!

Congratulations Mags. What a wonderful gift. I have five kids (four grown). I pray that someday I'll experience the love you describe. Two daughters are getting married soon (July 2015 & April 2016).

love and hugs to you

Perhaps being the oldest current member of this foum, am I the only one with a greatgrandchild?  Spent this past thanksgiving with the

baby and his father and grandfather.  Enjoy Mags!
