my first grandchild

To my beautiful beautiful Bryce.
You are my first grandchild and already you have shown me so much about life. I hope I will always be young enough to learn from you. Everyone said being a grandparent was better than being a parent and I really could not believe that because I loved my sons more than life itself. But let me tell you, my precious, it is wonderful being your grammie. I have enjoyed you so much. I long to see you. I don't want to be a pain to your parents but I really want to see you all the time. As a grandparent I can enjoy you totally and I don't have to do any of the work that comes with raising a child. And believe me it is alot of work. But your mommy is the best and she is the most patient mommy I have ever seen. Even when she doesn't get any sleep for nights and goes to work, she doesn't lose her patience.
I love your smiles, your nose scrunches, your marshmallow legs, everything about you is wonderful and I love you.
I will write more as time goes by with things like how you were a little Christmas miracle. your mommy and daddy were trying so long to have a baby and they were getting ready to have invitro and there was one month left before that was scheduled and the doctor even told them that "miracles" do happen. How is that for no hope. Anyhow, they both were sick over Thanksgiving with colds and I think just run down from some many disappointments and lo and behold you were created. They were going to wait until Christmas to tell the parents but they couldn't even wait one hour and we all knew. What a thrill, you made them the most happy people on earth at that point and all of us parents were right up there with them on the clouds. God was waiting till the right Bryce egg came so he could place you with them.
