I'm a Nanny

Here I am posting a new blog just days after my daughter gave birth to a beautiful baby girl......Jan 26, 2010 at 5pm....The past few days have been a whirlwind! We went to the hospital at 2:00 am Monday Jan 25, 2010, and spent the next 18 hours as my daughter went through all the stages of labour. What a fantastic job she did so,well and made me so very proud.....She did it without the epideral!

What a heart warming experience to watch your daughter bring her daughter in the world! I'm so very proud of my daughter and grandaughter who I love very much.

Showers of warm baby wishes and love <3

That was the setting yesterday for a wonderful baby shower....Mum was the word for over a month as I planned a baby shower for my baby! It was a secret right up until she came in the room.....

My daugter received lots of warm wishes and lovely gifts. Thank you to everyone who came out and helped us prepare for the birth of our bundle!

Purpose for my tales

As I was sitting here trying to figure out a purpose for my blog, it was like the answer was right in front of my nose...So I asked myself why not write a blog about what it is like to be a mother of a teenage daughter who is going to be a mother. I have to say the last 7 months since we found out the news of our daughter soon to be approching motherhood, it has gone from shock to total delight now. I have to admit when we first found out the news we didn't know what to do, but the first thing that came to our mind shortly after was to support our daughter and guide her through this confusing time for her. I am happy to say that she has rose up to the occasion and has taken thing considerably well. She is still in school and is working on finishing her grade 12 so she can graduate. We are so very proud of her...There is so much community support for young mothers wich made things so much easier. I think it's very important for teenage moms to be around other young mothers so socially they aren't lacking out. She has had loads of help from the Rose of Sharon where she attends school  and the councellors are very supportive....We are a little less then 4 weeks away and are looking forward to opening our hearts to our granddaughter... 

Happy New Year Everyone!

It's hard to believe 2009 is all but a memory and now we venture out on a New Year....Speaking of New Year a great time was had by all at our New Years Eve House Concert with My Sweet Patootie. Thanks to all who came out to support such great talent....I'm very excited as we embark on a new year because we will be celebrating the birth of our granddaughter in Febuary, yep that's right I sit here now writing with much awaited anticipation.....Check back periodically as I will be jonting down web stuff....May 2010 be everything you all desire and more!
