I'm a Grandma!!!!!!!!!!

My first granchild arrived into the world Fri. evening. He weighed a healthy 6lbs. 6ozs.. I was so happy I couldn't stop crying after I got the news. Mom, Dad and baby are doing well and they are home now, starting their new life together.

I thought having my son was an emotional time. Having a grandchild doesn't compare. I can't begin to describe the emotions I feel about this new life. To know that my family carries on through him for another generation. He holds our history in his DNA to pass on to yet another generation someday.

I wonder what his life will be. What will he like? Will he be artistic like me or mathematically inclined like his dad and grandad?

So many things all wrapped up in this little bundle of humanity. I haven't even seen him yet, but love him to the very bottom of my heart and soul.

I also wondered how time managed to pass so quickly that my son is old enough to be a dad. I don't feel any older than I did nearly 23 years ago when my son was born, yet I know I am older. I'm proud of my son. He's going to be a super dad-he already is.

Keeping occupied

I've got so many things to do today regarding business, but can't seem to focus on anything except one thing-the grandson might be born today. got a call just before I left for work that my son and his girlfriend were headed to the hospital. She has been admitted, but they aren't sure if it's real labor or false labor. He's a month early if he does arrive today and that worries me.

I'm working an 11 hour shift today and I have a feeling that 11 hours is going to seem like 11 days. I'll spend part of it adding links and things to my blog list-and an etsy mini. Got business cards I designed to print up too.
