I and my sister Robin were raised by our grandmother and our sister Jeannie was raised by the other grandmother. Our other younger siblings were raised by our parents. We three thank God everyday for our Grams. It took years for our disfunctional parents to finally get their act together. Now we "kids" are in our late 40's, 50's and 60's, big family. I think it is wonderful when Grandparents have so much love and the needed energy to raise a second family. God bless the grandparents who love and care so much.
