Two Weeks and Three Days


August 16, 2013

Within two weeks I will be a happy Grammy – well really 2 weeks and 3 days.

Yes, the day every potential Grammy can’t wait for … a little bundle of joy that you can spoil and hand back to the parents. In this case – Meredith and Ben – my oldest and her husband.
 

The arrival is in my thoughts, every day and night – is that overdoing it? I don’t think so. Am I being selfish? I don’t think so. Am I excited? DEFINITELY.

Friends keep asking – boy or girl? It might be clichéd but I really don’t care as long as he/she is healthy. I will be a Grammy no matter what the sex, what the name or who gets to hold it. The baby is my grandchild. My first grandbaby that will always hold a special place in my heart.

We will laugh, giggle, read; garden and cook then laugh and giggle more. Then they will spend the night or weekend while mom and dad have an evening off. In the summers, we will camp, catch fireflies, and jump waves.

Ok – stop. Let’s get that bundle of joy safely into the world first, name the baby, and start enjoying his/her new family -- Mom, Dad, Shelby, Sherlock and Peanut.

Then true joy will abound for The Happy Grammy.
