(11,304 posts)a boy. He gave us a little girl on christmas day 7 years ago. Everyday is a joy. I miss her when she isn't with me. They live next door to us. She has a half brother. Every other weekend when school is going he goes to his daddy's house. She gets to spend the night at my house with us on the weekend. The following weekend they kids go their other grandmother's house. My granddaughter is closer to me and her brother is closer to the other grandmother because they lived with her at one time. He also has another grandmother on his daddy's side.
I have a set a twin nieces and when they were young they loved collecting Barbie Dolls of the World. This year my nieces sent them to my granddaughter. Now she is going to continue the collection. we bought her 4 more at christmas. She is tickled to death that she is collecting now. I am also teaching her to cook some things. I tell her we are making memories. I pray to god that I will live long enough to see her go to college. I don't want her to forget me. Enjoy your little girl.
