B-Mom Blogging...a new sporting event

So, here I am trying to cut down on time demands, so I start "blogging." Finally there is a sporting event I can actually be a participant in rather than an "athletic supporter!"

But, with the new journey in our lives as grandparents, I thought I could at least share some thoughts. Don't get me wrong, this is not an outlet to give advice to my kids! They are doing a great job!

Julia: Our 9-month old granddaughter, daughter of Jason & Jennifer. What a delight as we've watched her grow. She is a people person deluxe and it shows! It is fun to watch each new stage of her little life. As parents, we forget all those cute little things ...and we can enjoy them more from our grandchildren. So, you have a lot to look forward to.

Mallory: That precious little 4 month old granddaughter, daughter of Brad & Shannon. She lives too far away now! Temple is 4.5 hours away so can't get there as fast She is changing everyday and it was great to spend some B-Mom time with her Monday & Tuesday.

But, this is supposed to be Moments with B-Mom. So, I want to say that it is a blessing to be a grandmother! To see God at work in the lives of our children and now blessing them with children is just too much to comprehend.

The hardest thing about being a grandmother is keeping your opinions to yourself! Things have changed since we raised 3 babies just a year apart! Doctors' instructions change, all the little "things" available like bouncie chairs, big rubber chairs (whatever they are called), car seats! It is amazing that our children even lived past puberty to give us grandchildren! They used to bounce around in the back of a station wagon and then a Pinto wagon! I guess no permanent damage was done!

OK...enough for a first blog! I'll try to make it more interesting next time!
