You never told me it was this good being a grandma!

A friend said to me that the love for a grand child was the purest form of love. The child of my child is so special. DGS 1 said on the phone that he had had a good summer holiday but it would have been "maximum" if we had been there. Still glowing.

I have a magnet on my fridge which has been there for many years stating If I'd known how much pleasure grandchildren bring I would have had them first a lovely lady bought it for me 24 yrs ago when my dearest first DGS was born.

That's lovely Falconbird and I know the feeling! I only have one dgd but I watched her come into the world and have been in love with her ever since

Someone sent me this message on Fb.

"I never thought I'd fall in love again and then someone called me Nana."

Soooo true. !!!

Agree! Absolutely!

A child of your child is a special thing! Congratulations! (Is that too many !!!!!)

Grand children are the best thing ever to happen to you. Shout it from the rooftops! I would die in a heartbeat for mine. Mine are 6 now and each age has been wonderful and it just gets better and better . Welcome to the Granny club and enjoy every minute.

Hello and welcome itsazoohere.
I too was surprised by not just the love I feel for my Grandchildren, but the sense of connectedness too. I was also very happy to 'move up' a generation when my first grandchild was born.
Feel free to be as vocal as you like on here.
