I could sit in a corner and feel sorry for myself with all that is happening in my life at the moment. But a little voice kicked that thought away - it was shouthing NANAN - little Miss Rachel is a year old and as cute as a button - she is a ray of sunshine when you feel low and is so sweet natured. She is a right little girly girl and I adore her. Her big cousin Miss Isobel is also a tonic - she is a tomboy and hearing of her antics makes me laugh. So thank you David and Annie for my little angels

The girls would melt the hardest of hearts with their smiles. I have been lucky enough to hold and cherish Rachel - but havent held Isobel yet - she does kiss the puter screen when she chats on messenger lol - and I catch her kisses.

Wendy - my son forgot about the time difference - wtih them being in Aus . I got up one morning to see the answer machine light flashing. All I heard was this little voice shouting GRAAAAAN and then giggling lol my son then took the phone from her and said she wanted to ring you lol ( Shes 19 months old now) They have been filming her over the year - especially when the post arrives - she sees a gold coloured box and KNOWS its for her so she starts dancing.

Hi Everyone That is so sweet, I know how you feel. I have three Grandchildren and they are the light of my life I loved my 2 sons dearly but like all kids they take you for granted sometimes. (especially teenage years lol) My grandchildren give me unconditional love and because they live quite a distance from me and I don't see them as often as I would like. They ring me and tell me they love me often. It's very special being a Grandma, I love it. Well back to my knitting I'm doing a Poncho for my 6 year old Grandaughter. Kindest Regards Jackie (Australia)

I cherish the thought of all five of our grandchildren - yes even the two gawky older teenage boys. Actually got a hug from the 15 year old last weekend (older teenage boys don't 'do' hugs.) that was before he told me (we had just arrived at their house for the weekend) he was going out, was sleeping over and wouldn't be seeing us again!! Something else teenage boys do - live their own lives. but I love to see them going off with their friends, i wouldn't want to hold them at home just to see us. Yes I count my 5 blessings every day, bless them Ann glos

Hi She,haven't been blessed with grand children yet,and as my only son is 30 and not showing any signs of settling down .I don't know when I will. I know from friends and my brothers that they have such a special place in their hearts and lives.I have also seen how you sparkle even brighter when you talk about yours. Hugs Brenda
