and it was so nice. If you haven't seen the pics on FB or heard me go on about the birth my first greatgrandchild then maybe you aren't aware........I'm a great granma! Yep. August, 9, 2010 my granddaughter gave birth to her first little son, Owen William Johnson. Lastnight she called me and wanted to come over and visit with the little guy and her husband, Adam. We had a nice visit. Then today my daughter came over and I showed her my updated pics online on FB. We called my granddaughter and went over to visit. Owen was awake. This is the first time I have seen him with his eyes open. She gave him a bath and I helped her. My daughter(grandma) is alittle nervous so she didn't hold him much but I sure did. Just couldn't get enough of him. Then my ex came over to visit as well. He has been very active in her life and helped her quite a bit when she was getting out on her own. It was such a nice visit and we told funny stories and such. Have you had such a nice family get together lately? Was it a good experience? Are you happy for your family and how they are doing? I sure am! She just beams from ear to ear and is such a good mother! It is so nice to see. How about you?

Ya, make it next weekend! THis visit has been a long time coming. Bad feelings and seperation hasn't let us get together for a long time. My granddaughter is very lucky to have this following. And my great granson is too. Seven people there yesterday. And that represented all the family I have.

I'm so glad that your family is doing well. I knew that baby would make a huge difference in your grandaughter's life Sometimes it takes something to "save" us from ourselves..lol....I have not had a visit with any family in a very long time but I am very happy for you and that it went so well. Take care and enjoy that baby. I just love babies.

I am sorry to hear you haven't had a visit with any family. Sometimes it is a good thing. LOL Yes, my granddaughter is just as happy as she can be. Smiles from ear to ear about the baby. It was a definite save for sure. I just take the baby right away when they are over. Can't get enough. She actually called me and ASKED if she could come over the other day. Strikes me funny.

Sorry to hear about Lisa Rose. I think you could write a book, my dear! Hope you have a nice visit.
