My grandaughter is 17 today!
You may be asking yourself (if you read my profile info), how is this possible?! She's only 39!
Well, 22 years ago I fell madly and deeply in love with a man who was twice my age....literally....I was 18 and he was (almost) 36. My step-son is 4 years younger than me and my step-daughter is 7 years younger....not much of a difference!
But we were in love so we got married in 1991 after dating for 3 years. Nineteen years later, we're still madly and deeply in love....we'll be celebrating our 19th wedding anniversary in August!
Anywho, I became a grandma in 1993 when my step-daughter gave birth to our first grandchild....a little girl. I wasn't sure what to think about it....I was one month away from turning 23....I couldn't believe I was a grandma at the age of 22 years old!!! At first it wasn't a big deal cuz she wasn't talking yet.....then when she was able to talk and called me "gwamma" the first time....it didn't even phase me.....I honored the title. I loved being called grandma!
I had the privelege of "babysitting" my grandaughter several times as she grew. Taking her out in public was fun.....she would call me grandma and people would look at me like "NO WAY!"....LOL
She's a beautiful 17 year old young lady now....and she still calls me grandma.....and I couldn't be more proud of her!
