ex-wife?  oh geeeeeeeeez jim...this isnt high school...lol.

i moved away a year and a half ago...ran away from my kid's addictions and needed to work on ME...but i have really been missing my family (NOT THE DRAMA).  i think i am strong enough now to move back...at least i hope i am.  I LOVE LIVING AT THE BEACH...and i HATE to give that up...but i knew the moment my son told me they were having a baby that i was coming back.

i cant imagine madison growing up and me missing out on all the fun.

Believe me I have/am giving serious thought to moving to Atlanta.  My wife doesn't want to but I may just do it anyway..I miss my only son, and my grandkids too much, and I've been here nearly 11 years with my wife's kids and I love them to death...but I'm afraid I've got "Georgia on my Mind"...and it ain't leaving.  They're all welcome to come...my youngest daughter will go anywhere I go..my wife won't go because my ex wife is there.

How much did she weigh?  Length?  Hair?  How many times you unwrapped her to count her toes and fingers?

I loved reading your story...all my life I wanted daughters...I wind up with 3 boys and my son's first is a girl  (of course I have 2 stepdaughters in their 20's whom I consider my daughters and I love more than anything.)

Congrats on "your" new baby girl!!!

Glad everyone is doing well.

NOW...as far as the 75 outfits go....I guess you qualify for an addiction forum...or would that fall under "retail therapy'??? lol

enjoy and spoil her rotten!!

Congrats Lizzy on your new baby girl.  I believe a grandbaby is Gods gift to us for having to raise our own babies.

Is this your first grandchild,We received our first grandchild 10 months ago the hardest thing is remembering they're not yours,and sometimes you have to step back and let your kids be the parents,my daughter and her partner are doing really well but times have changed and they do it their way,sometimes I have to bite my tongue.I found being a grandparent you get all the euphoria you got when you had your own children but none of the anxiety.Once again congratulations and enjoy her with all your heart.  Denise
