I can shout it out "I'M GOING TO BE A GRANDMOTHER"!

 
 
 
 
 DD made the announcement this weekend! She and her husband R are expecting our 1st grandchild! Due date is April 2, 2013! I've known for a few weeks now but was not allowed to say anything until the end of the 1st trimester. That was this past week so... WoooooHooooo!!! I've been busting at the seams (like the sewing reference there ;) ) keeping the secret, just sure it was going to burst out if anyone asked. I've got a poker face!
I have plans to sew lots of baby things but will wait a little longer as they have plans to find out the baby's sex.  I'm thinking it's a girl.....just a feeling.... But I made it and now I can let it slip into any conversation! If a strange asks "How are you today?" I can reply "Great, I'm going to be a grandmother!" I'm so excited, I'm smiling all the time just thinking of that little bundle of baby that I'll get to nuzzle and smell it's sweet little neck! I've been waiting for this day since I found my first gray hair. Many "grandparent" friends assure me it's even better than having your own kids. I loved being a mother.........so a greater joy...I can't wait.
