Just wondering how many of us are Great parents. I never met my Great Grandparents, or at least I couldn’t remember them because they died when I was very young but these days quite a few of my friends are greats. I was a ‘great’ in my early 60s and now I have 4 . I don’t see them as often as my grandchildren but it is lovely to know they are there. It’s funny that one of my greats is a fair bit older than one of my grandchildren - not sure what they should call each other- cousins, aunties or what ?

Well we are all so blessed to have all these descendants. I joke with my eldest gt grandson and tell him I would like to be a great great ! He is only 10 but you never know. His Mum was 17 and still at school when she had him and his Dad was 19. They are married now and happy as Larry. This little boy actually had a great great great grandma for a short while before she died. They were Dutch people and all had children at a young age and then lived a long time.
