Amongst the many countless blessings my Lord and Savior has bestowed upon me, being able to say that I am a grandmother is a priceless thing. I found out on July 13, 2008. It took a minute for me to emotionally adjust to the fact that my life was about to take a change and that my oldest daughter herself was going to have the responsibility of motherhood. A new edition to our family was on the way, who would have thought, but that goes to show you that life has no true guaranteed plan of order, some things we must just accept, go with, and thank God for the positiveness in it all. I hoped one day that I would acquire the title of "grandmother", I just didnt quite no when this blessing would come upon me. Well I think its safe to say I know now, lol, and oh how blessed I am from day to day to spend time with him.
I began to assist my daughter in preparation almost immediately because its utterly amazing how time flies and 9 months isn't really all that long if you think about. I mean truly when a woman finds out she is expecting 4-6 weeks, sometimes more, has already passed cutting into the preparation time you have before your new bundle of joy arrives and thats if he/she doesnt make a premature arrival. I remember with my first child 24 years ago I didn't find out til I was12 weeks which left me with six months to prepare, seems like a lot of time but it really isnt financially when you have bills and other things to take care of and now you have to budget in an addition to your household. Anyway grandma, thats me, lol, started helping my daughter get ready the same day we got the news. My daughter chose the color scheme for the room. I bought the paint and his dad painted the room. After the painting was completed I had the room carpeted.
Next on the list was be the Baby Shower .
