New Grandparents = New Firsts
Yep. A new first. I was nervous and excited just like with all my other firsts. I was jonesing for this first. Had been waiting all day. The anticipation was high; emotions were out. of. control.
Then, as my first became a reality, I realized it was actually two new firsts:
#1) Holding my new grandbaby, my first grandchild, for the first time.
#2) Crying all over a baby that hadn't come from me, for the first time.
E was baptized in tears by my overwhelming love for him in that moment.
My baby had his own baby. How else could I react but with a blessing of joyous tears?
Maybe like this:
G-daddy holding E for the first time on Fat Tuesday!
Uncle Alex came prepared for the celebration and adorned the room, and all in it, with revelry!
It was a fitting for such a celebratory moment of firsts.
OH OH OH MRS TUCKER 🙂 Isn't it wonderful : )
I started blogging late may, having no clue what I was doing...Did posts for a month and had not done an "ABOUT ME" post yet....and in the end, when I tried to decide what to say? It was about being a grandmother for the first time..because that was what my life had been about for the last three years 🙂
It's wonderful and fun 🙂 And YES like they say......you can give them back! 🙂
Blogging is the new great connecter. Go, you!
Oh happy Day!

Still waiting for my first grandchild - and am sure my reaction will be similar. Congratulations on you first - and first!
Thank you! Prepare yourself, it is a magical moment.
What a beautiful post. Congratulations to you and your on the expansion of your family tree!
Thank you!
Seeing him in the morning and not holding him until the evening...agony! When we were expecting our first grandchild we went out and bought matching rocker recliners. I can remember one specific evening when we had our sweet baby for a few hours and were swapping him back and forth between our rocking chairs. It seemed every time it was my husband's turn, my arms just ached to get that baby back in them! Congratulations again on E's arrival!
It was torture! Husband and I experienced that same feeling when the other was holding the baby. Such a longing for him to be back in our arms.
