2-14 Grandma


I am going to be a Grandma in three weeks. It’s very exciting and sad at the same time. My daughter lives in Arizona and I live in Missouri so I won’t get to be a big part of their lives. I am originally from AZ and moved here with my ex-husband. Then when we divorced in 2003 he moved back there with our oldest daughter. I have one daughter who lives here and Becca lives there. She just got married last year and now is expecting in March. I have planes tickets for my younger daughter, Miranda and me to fly out there in April. I can’t wait to meet Becca’s new husband and my new granddaughter. It’s bitter sweet. I have fond memories of playing games and spending time with my Grandma Kelm, my moms mom, and I want to have that too. I doubt we will ever live in the same state, as her husband is in the military. We were never that close and that’s why she moved with her dad. Since finding out she was pregnant, she has started to reach out more to me and text pictures and show me her progress. Her belly is really getting big now and the excitement continues to grow as well. I feel to young to be a Grandma, 42, but it is what it is. I love my daughter and hope that I will get to be a big part of their lives in the future. Miranda and I are so happy we get to see them in April and we will all go visit my Grandma Kelm also while there. She lives about three hours away from Becca, but she said they will go Saturday and spend the night and visit with the family. They are all looking forward to the visit too.
