Lovely news faye17. It really is wonderful being a grandparent. My youngest granddaughter is 6 weeks old tomorrow and I felt the same when she was born as I did when the other 4 were born.
Welcome to Gransnet, a lovely place with some truly wonderful, kind and caring people.

What a warm welcome! My goodness!! Thank you all so very much. My son, the expectant Daddy is 33. When he was 24 he was diagnosed with cancer and the fact that he survived and is now so well and happy is like a miracle already in our lives. Can you imagine how happy we are now that he is going to have his dream come true and be a Daddy?

You may now be about to embark on the most lovely part of your life. No-one tells you how you might feel an unexpected surge of emotion when you first see that tiny baby who is your first grandchild.

I can't remember who said that if you think of your life like a meal, then grandparenthood is the sweet-course of life.

Someone else said that grandchildren are your reward for not murdering your children.

Congratulations! On your news, you must be so excited.
The problem with high standards is that they only have one way to go!
So good luck!

Hi all, came upon this website while browsing for something lovely to give my son's girlfriend who has just told us we're about to be grandparents, and for the first time. She is just 13 weeks along and myself and hubby are over the moon. At the same time this is all new territory to us and I hope I can live up to my own high standards - at everything!!!! LOL
