I've already started getting grey in the beard, it will be the end of me. Saying that like you said my 3 year old girl wasn't planned and now I couldn't live without her. It's just you finally get to see your life taking shape and look forward to future plans and that gives you the biggest slap around the chops imaginable. I've got 3 of the little buggers now with 6 year gaps between them and I'm getting a white beard too living in a house full of women. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

welshphil 164 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 I've got two Grandsons aged 5 and 3 and they stay overnight twice a week, they're boisterous little sods fair play but I wouldn't have it any other way! They both love the dogs and our Saturday afternoon stroll around the mountain with them is the highlight of all our week - dogs included . Having Grandkids is different gravy and i'm making the most of every precious second 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rickshaw swami 3,885 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 Time well spent Mr bird.My father was the roughest toughest onryiest man in Dixie until my first daughter was born.Then he became a softie. My father always says those grandchildren are his reward for not culling me 1 hour ago, gnipper said: I've got 3 of the little buggers now with 6 year gaps between them and I'm getting a white beard too living in a house full of women. I can sympathize with you.I have 2 teenage daughters and a wife.I went bald by 30 even though baldness doesn't run in my family. My first kid was born when I was 19.Its a hard miserable road starting that young.I love my girls and did what was necessary to give them a better future.Raising kids is hardwork no matter your age. Congratulations Mr greb Enjoy your blessing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 20,359 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 My grandson is five, he lives in Saudi but usually visits us at every chance. I haven't seen him for months because of the lockdown, which is more severe out there. Plus his passport was running out and we applied to renew it , but it's taken ages. I phoned the passport office today, but they said it's the perfect storm; skeleton staff meaning a huge backlog, plus loads of people renewing or applying for passports, thinking that the travel embargo is going to end soon, so can't give a date when it will be done. So........when people get a bit frazzled with boisterous grandkids, just think what it would be like if they were thousands of miles away and you don't know when's the next time you will see them ! Thank God for Skype ! Cheers. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
