Our first granddaughter and I have a special bond..I took care of her for the first three years of her life, her father died 6 mos before she was born..my daughter and the baby lived with us for these first three years,it was a privledge to keep her..I am very blessed to have all three of my Grand Daughters within 30 minutes of my home...I now keep one 4 yr Granddaughter two days a week..and that is just perfect..she gets the time with children her age at day care and I get two wonderful days with her. When we were raising our family, both of us had to work and we missed alot with our kids, I'm making up for lost time. They grow too fast, there will be time to quilt when I am not the special person in their life.
