Being a Grandparet
Oh, the difference between Parent & Grandparent! Such mixed emotions involved in the ownership of being a grandparent. Such happiness in being able to provide things you could not as a parent. Happiness in the excitement of wondering what the new baby will look like and deeply hoping he/she will look like your child. I am about to experience the growing excitement of a grandchild this September.
Who would have guessed that this internal feeling deep within me comes from things my own son had mentioned to me thoughout his growing up years. When he was 17, he said I love kids, I want to marry and have kids. "No, No, NO, I thought...you are too young...enjoy life first, don't make it a priority"
My son is 34, and having a child for the first time! And, I am just as excited as he is!
