I am a newbe this type of thing. It is not the happy event we thought it would be. We became a grandparents in october. The saying, a daughter is a daughter for life, a son is a son until he gets a wife, has proved more that true. It has been made very hard for us to see our son, wife and grandaughter. They have got rid of the spare double bed so if we want to stay, 'there is a hotel at the end of the road'. We now have a 3hr round trip to see them and this weekend. I found out on face book our grandaughter had been to hospital. I can't describe how gutting that is.
