New Grandbaby News



I was talking to my son yesterday and was ready to get off the phone with him and he said, "Mom do you want to hear some good news"? And of course I said yes. I thought he was going to tell me about their new house - they just bought their first house - he is 34 and she is 33.

"Mom, (my daughter in law) is pregnant."



I said, "Your kidding"! (I didn't think they were going to have any!)



He said it was true. So Yippee - my second grandchild - who will live in Ohio, but that's not too far from Georgia. And number one grandson, no worries - we are so close - it will always be that way for us. And grandchild number two who is coming, we will ALL love you, pray for you, and wait anxiously for you!

Oh Sandi Sweetie...
Congratulations. Grandkids are just the best. What a wonderful way to end the conversation. I bet it started the conversation up all over again. When are they expecting? I am so tickled for you sweetie. The more the merrier.

We are expecting grandbaby No. 8 - June 11th. It is a little boy, so we will have 4 grand daughters and 4 grandsons. We are so excited. They have not picked out a name for him yet. We are still waiting.

Have a beautiful evening. Country hugs and much love, Sherry
