GRANDMA/GRANDPA!!!

I've waited a week to let the news settle in. We're going to be grandparents! I could say, "it's about time," or "finally" but I really just want to say "HOORAY!" Parenthood shouldn't be rushed, so I guess grandparenthood shouldn't either. It should come when everyone's ready - especially little person who is learning on the other side, getting ready for his/her grand entrance which will probably be late April/early May.

Jason and Brandy have said their little person will be named Pork Ramen or Gorthag. I will love PR or G. They will ride in grandpa's wheelbarrow in the backyard. They will help me make cookies and we'll eat them in the swing on the patio. They will walk outside with grandpa and find bugs, rocks and sticks. They will stomp on eggshells in the compost. We'll read books and snuggle and he/she will love the Wizard of Oz, hot fudge sundaes, ebilskivers, the cats, the turtles, Betty Morgan's yummy brownies, Sharks and Alligators and Here Comes the Oxcart.

Time to stockpile diapers, teeny clothes, patience and love. We're ready for something new and exciting!
