Our son is married and lives in Ireland with his wife. Hopefully, he will come out to see us later this year. His wife won’t fly and we’re no longer able to visit them. They don’t have any children. My sister-in-law is in much...

CAPirani Photography & Art @capirani (2817) • United States 29 Dec 23

Christmas will never be the same for my children and grandchildren. They lost their father/grandfather on Christmas morning. He had become septic most probably due to pneumonia, living alone, and not getting to a doctor for...

Went to the mailbox to get the mail. My mailbox wasn't too overly full for two days' worth of mail--and no bills! On the way back I got to chatting with a grandmother and her two little grandchildren. The...

Granny's Kindergartener

clrumfelt @clrumfelt (5597) • Tennessee Ridge, Tennessee 30 Aug 22

I got to pick up my grandaughter from kindergarten for the first time today. She walked out and her little face was priceless when she saw Granny and Grandpa driving up in the truck to get her. I will never forget that moment.

Too Many Girls in the Family?

Diana B. @BloggerDi (3121) • United States 1 Aug 22

The photo is me with my four granddaughters. It was taken a few months ago. The girls were 9, 5, 5 and 3 at the time. And no, I don't believe there is such a thing as "too many" of one gender in any family. Every person is a...

I saw my grandsons and granddaughter Monday

Wendy @jerzgirl (9384) • United States 6 Jul 22

Although it hurts knowing that my daughter-in-law took the kids across the country making it even more difficult for my son to see them, I am glad she decided to land within two hours of where I live. I don't currently have a lot...

I have't seen them in 6 years. The youngest just turned 7. Their mother dumped my son and moved east to Harrisburg, PA, with her new boyfriend just before Memorial Day. My son found out when he texted her to arrange to take them...

Our Easter Holiday

pumpkinjam @pumpkinjam (8876) • United Kingdom 16 Apr 22

Good afternoon to you all. It has been a while since I've been here. I'd like to say it's because I've been busy but it's actually more that I forget. I have been busy. Mostly my monotonous 9 to 5 but I have also been doing some...

I love this saying. It rings so true with me and I am sure with many Grandparents. Just looking at their little faces and wathing them grow up into responsible, loving adults is such a pleasure. A few days ago my two youngest...
