Default Life Changing Event.
Yesterday, my life changed. Hopefully for the better. I became a "Paw Paw". My stepson and his girlfriend had a happy, healthy baby boy. It means more to me because I don't have any children of my own, and I am very humbled that that they consider me "Grandad". I was very apprehensive about this at first because of some of the circumstances around it, but once I saw him, my heart melted. I can actually say that for the first time in a long time, I am actually excited about something in my life. I am looking forward to this experience more than anything I have ever known!

Pictures coming soon, and Big Fuzzy will just have to get over it!

Having Grandkids is soooooo much more fun than kids. You can laugh when they do things that you would have slapped your kid for and as hubby say you can fill them with sugar and then send them home.
