SHOULD I FEEL OLD?

Now I have two! Two granddaughters that is. My daughter Amy gave birth to a 7 lb. - 10 oz. black haired beauty three days ago. Many grandparents say it makes them feel "Older!" Not  me.

When my children were born, I was trying to figure out how I was going to buy diapers, medicine, pictures and on and on. That in itself made me feel old. The worry got to me on our first Christmas. That worry ended me up in a hospital, (an overnight stay). I worried too much, way to much.

Now I can go back to my childhood somewhat. A grandchild is just that. A child that is grand. As a parent there are many responsibilities. As a "Poppa", there is time to step back and simply enjoy. That makes me feel "Young Again".
