I just found your story, I too have no grandchildren. Your humor is wonderful and right on target. I guess I will wait as long as it takes. Thanks for the laughs <3

Only if you (Joyce) buy nice gifts.

Hey, as you know, I have a brother in law who has a whole mess of grand kids.
These kids all seem to have three of four birthdays a year, to which we get invited. I believe it’s because we (Joyce) buys nice gifts. I did suggest that we consider cheaper gifts and get off the A list. However, we do enjoy the kids. The adults—–that’s another question.

Love the story. Would these grandchildren be related to me?????

Great story Terry,,,, but yes, be careful what you wish for. I would laugh at my friend Cindy when I would met her at the post office and she would say ,” OH Agnes I just got some new pictures of my .grandkids ” I would think ,”Oh Not more pictures”, but things change when the shoe’s on the other foot .. Now being the proud Nanna of 6 grandkids , Its amazing the Love you have for them . You would give your life for your children, and when it comes to those little kaffers ,,,,,the Love for them is overwhelming !!!!! Will look forward to the day when it’s your turn my friend !!!!!!

Great story Terry. This empty nest syndrome really does suck. I can’t wait for grand kids too. Everyone out there with kids still at home enjoy every minute with them cause they grow up way to quick.
