    On a Personal Note

    I won't post this online for the most part, but I feel you folks are friends I have never met. My daughter just blessed me with my second grandchild, a boy. Here's the family portrait after the blessed event. These are the people who keep me going.

    Congrats! A new grandson is indeed a blessing.

    I have one daughter, she’s still young (11 years old) and having her with me makes everything else make sense.

    A grandson is cool!
    My wife's family seems to make mostly girls, (we had two). We also have 1 grandson, and 6 granddaughters! (And 1 great granddaughter!)

    Actually, he was doing good stuff! They bought a new house and the old one was going on the market this morning. He was there, cleaning and sprucing. The realtor told him the listing was going live at 9:00 a.m. and there were already two showings scheduled.

    He came back to the hospital with a big stuffed animal for his daughter (my granddaughter) as a reward for being such a great trooper!

    I have a terrific son-in-law!

    Congratulations, you are a very lucky man!
    In all probabilities I will never experience being a grandfather, but on the plus side does that mean I won’t get old?
