Sweet Baby Baylor

Geez where does a Grandmother start?

I look at Baylor and see nothing but innocence. I see such a happy, sweet little boy that is so loved by all those around him……his mom, dad, sister, aunts, uncles and grandparents! He’s just beginning to show his little laugh that is totally contagious….you can’t help but laugh when he gets going. He’s just perfect – in everyway and I totally adore him. He’s getting stronger and stronger everyday and I’m so very proud of him.

Next I see all the fun things my daughter and her family have ahead of them. Oh the joys of parenting. Its exhausting, trying, difficult yet at the same time – the most rewarding role of a lifetime. I’m so excited for Jamie and Tom as they are now off and running in their roles as parents. And they are both wonderful at that job.

So baby Baylor, you are one very lucky boy to have born into such a wonderful family. All the things you will learn, places you will visit, things you will experience. I’m excited to be a part of your life too. I hope the word “Grandma” will bring as much joy as it did to my children while they were growing up. Because so far – Grandparenting…….while sometimes exhausting – is still even more rewarding as parenting! Now thats a perfect scenario of “second chances”.
