I'm gonna be a grandma!

It's finally soaking in. I'm gonna be a grandma. Oh my goodness, what do I do now? I've been praying for years and years and now it's happened! Of course my kids are like 'get over it already', but I can't! I'm so excited I can hardly stand myself. :)
I've been on line learning about all the birthing technique's and options mothers now have that were not available when I was having my babies. Well, I guess there were but we didn't know about it.
Ok, I think I'm ready now. My daughter is just gonna have to help me stay focused and remind me to breathe in, breathe out. Somehow this seems alittle backwards.
Ok, I think I'm really ready now. I can slowly breathe in all by myself now. Did I tell you how excited I am?? Oh my gosh, 'breathe out'!! Ok it's a good thing we have 7 months for me to practice and get my act together. Whew
God is Good all the time and All the time God is Good.

Left Overs

We (my hubby & I ) are actually eating left overs again. It has been so long since we've had any food left over from a meal. Now that all our kids are gone, we have left overs!! It's not bad. I forgot how great left over potatoes and meat loaf are! Yummy :) Cooking for 2 boys for the last 20 years I realize how fast food really disappeared in this house. My youngest son would come home from work, stand with the frig door wide open and say, "there's nothing to eat". Of course we had tons of food it just had to be heated up or heaven forbid he eat something healthy like a salad. Next thing I know he was frying the steak I had bought to grill for supper! It's only 3:00 in the afternoon for crying out loud! What are we grilling for supper now? How does a PB&J sound? Please tell me I'm not telling you mom's any thing new here?
I like the left overs okay, but I miss my kids more! I'm glad my daughter and her hubby live close and still come over to eat my Left Overs!!
