Congratulates on the new granddaughter Ankers smile
Are you going to tell us any more? Birth weight, hair colour, name??
Have you been to see her yet and is this your first grandchild?
The sort of thing grannies like to hear and share in the joy. ? or ???

Auntieflo grin and congratulations to you too.

I will say one more detail. Grandaughter is very fortunate to be born having all 4 greatgrannies and 2 greatgrandads.
Not like it was for my own children who only had 1 greatgrannie. Though she was with them for a long time.

morethan2 - she is georgous too!

6 greatgrandparents?! That is impressive, she has good genes for longevity! My DGGD actually has, on the other great grandmother's side, a Great great grandmother! Now I think of it she has a second great grandmother on her father's side. Someone had better draw up a family tree!! So that's 3 greats and a great great...
Plenty of people to love her and support the new parents!

I think it is great that they can have greatgrandparents too nowadays.

And great greatgrandparents!

Congratulations on all the lovely babies what a joy they are,and its so encouraging to hear of so many GGParents enjoying the new babies there seems to be quite a few of us in our late 50s/early 60s so different to when my GGmother was alive she seemed to always have been very old compared to to-days GGMothers.Enjoy those precious babies ladies.flowers
