    Just wondered how many Grandparents are out there. Aren't Grandkids the greatest!
    :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

    Oh, forgot to mention I have ten!
    Yes, I am Nana to Conner 4, Georgia 22 mon., and Hunter 18 mon. They are just so much fun and I can't wait for more!!!!

    FOUR and hoping for number 3 son to get busy! Meanwhile they are all 1000 miles away, but I am enjoying them this week, and will have the pugs to fill in the gaps when I return home.

    I joined the ranks of "Grammie" status 3 1/2 years ago when the love of my life, Noah was born. Since then the others have blessed us with Zachary, Hailey and Taylor. Only Zack lives close, but we stay in touch with pics and calls (and Facebook!).

    I can't wait for the day they are allowed to come to Grammie and Poppa's to vacation without their parents.

    I miss them all so much- their smiles, new words (just loved being called Mom by Zack- he thought that was my name) and their antics. Yes- the grands are soooo much better.

    I am a grandmother to a granddaughter 6, and grandson 3 and a grandson due in December.
    They live out of state, so I don't see them too often, but, talk to them on the phone

    I have 6 and 2 great-grand children. I've
    made a quilt for each of them. Love it!

    One granddaughter is out of state and she
    has the 2 great grand children and we don't get
    to see them but once a year. Wish they were
    closer.
