Congratulations in so many ways.

(19,204 posts)It's a great feeling, isn't it? Holding that little girl in your arms is almost as good as holding your children when they're born. The love just washes down over you like standing under a waterfall. You've started a new chapter in your life's story, and it's a great read.
I hope mother and baby are both doing fine. Now you have someone else to worry about, and dote on. It's wonderful. Congratulations, Grandpa!

Just vicariously feeling your granddaughter in our arms--there's just nothing else like it. It feels like...hope.
