Talking Life is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!

My 1st grandchild was born on 8/13/02. A little girl. The first time I held her she grabbed my finger and stole my heart!!! What a sweetie!! I just hope and pray that the world we leave her is a lot better than the one we were saddled with.
God bless Emily Jane and the USA!!!

Unhappy Bragging

Seven years ago last Christmas I sat down with my son's and their current girlfriends. I announced that there would be a $2,500 bounty on all grandchildren. One of my son's has been married for five years and the other is engaged. I'm still waiting to pay. Really wish I were you. Think the kids are waiting for me to be too old and feebal to mess with the grandkids minds.

Sept 3rd to the 8th I'll be in Branson and the Radison. If your around I'll buy you a drink and maybe you could pass on some wisdom as to how to become a Grandpa. Congrads.

Stay healthy,
Andy

Congrats on your new Grandaughter. Remember that Grandpa's job is to love em and spoil em to pieces. I speak from experiance cause I've been a grandpa for 4 whole months already.

Thumbs up

Congrats, Advisor. My daughters have informed me it may not be in the cards for me to be an " OPA ". Now if we could get Beau to stop reminding us of that bridge at Dong Ha we will be OK. Congrats again

Default Yea Gramps!

I can't believe the first time you see your grandchild you do the old "pull my finger" trick. Guess your preparing her for what life around Gramps is gonna be like.

Real happy for you. Now if I could only get my cats re-fixed so I could be one too.

Default Congrats, Gramps !

Being a grandpa is truly a terrific experience. I have three, two granddaughters and a grandson. They are the apple of this old man's eye. seeing that you're new to this granpa gig, I'll give you a little advice, "spoil'em rotten and send home. Revenge is sweet !"

Seriouly, I'm sure you'll find out just how quickly and tightly those little one's can wrap yopui around their tiny fingers. Again, congradulations on entering the world of grandpas !! May the good Lord bless you with many more.
