Son becomes a Dad, I become a Grand-Dad. Pretty awesome thing.

The world just became a better place.

Thank you for sharing your great news, P!

You, my friend, is one of them!.

Very happy for you. It’s a great ride.

IMHO. I wish my late ex-wife could have have experienced it.

My first grandchild is 13 now. She called me today wanting me to come pick her up tomorrow. Me and her have 13 years of moments now. But I know what you mean. Congrats.

Lots of wooden block walls and Lego projects in your near future.

You're going to love it!

A baby girl by my grand daughter so I am great gramma! And at 70! We all had kids young.

A tiny little innocent baby to melt away some of the dirt in this world.

A transcending moment for me, I think.

Nothing like grandchildren!

I am not normally excitable, but when our first arrived, I was surprised by my reaction. Over the moon.

Congratulations! You’re gonna LOVE it!!!

But I don't count.

Not up to me, I think.

My grandfather used to love visits from us, but especially when our young girls were along. He was beaming when we went over to the USA to celebrate his 100th birthday. His great-grandchildren were the joy of his existence. I only wish my parents could have met theirs.

And beware the metamorphosis! My mom used to marvel at how our daughters transformed from “blobs” into some very feminine humans. It happens quicker than you think could ever be possible—for the grandparents, that is. For the parents, the transformation can’t come soon enough. We almost demanded that the day the last diaper was used in our house should be declared a world-wide holiday.

Then I had 2 in diapers at the same time. You adapt.

Either you adapt or…….nope, in this case, there is no “or”

Thank god you start with 2 month olds.

That is great! I'm happy for you.

I was able to hang out with my four children, one son-in-law, and two little grandchildren (grandson, 3, and granddaught, 20 months). It is a wonderful time of life. My daughter, spouse, and daughter live in Europe, so it is good to see them. My grandson asked me, "Why are you the grandpa?" He finds my age beyond comprehension yet hilarious, finding it hard to believe I was once his age.

that;s when it gets interesting.

Congratulations
