Subject: RE: BS: I am going to be a grandpa
Congratulations! You will love it! (My 3rd is due in 5 weeks!)
Just a wee word of warning...you forget just how tiring they can be! I've looked after my 8 month old granddaughter for the last couple of days, and I've got her for the regular slot tomorrow - I'm tatered!
However, the wonder of seeing them develop new skills, and appreciation of the world around them makes it all worth it. My biggest challenge tomorrow is to get her to actually hit the xylophone, and not just wave the beater from side to side, chew it, then throw it!
