I have 5 grandchildren. Kaeli, 14; Kristen, 12 next week; Parker, 5; Kaden, 3; and Jackson, 13 months. Should have skipped the kids and went straight to the grandkids! They are a joy!

I only have 1 grandson, but I was quilting, or attempting to quilt when his daddy was still in High School.

We have four grandchildren from our son and DIL. Their farm is just a few kms up the road so we get to see them often.
Jacob 16, Hannah 14, Caitlin 11 and Samuel 8. They all wonderful children and bring us a lot of joy. They have sleep overs often.

we are grandparents, too.. I have 5 at the moment, with one to be induced tomorrow.. its been fun letting them " quilt " with me on the machine.. they sit either on my lap to learn to sew potholders ( or the older 2 sit beside me to sew)... I teach them to keep hands away from the needle by my running the pedal ( without them knowing it ), and if they get hands in the wrong positions, the pedal stops the machine... its been fun to see their excitement of sewing with their " mema"...

I have 15 grandchildren, 4 great grandchildren and a great grandson to be born in January. To be honest, I haven't counted up how many girls/boys...trying to stay on top of the Christmas list as we make all our gifts every year. I sew or craft and DH makes wood toys/gifts.
