more thoughts on the "grand" thing. it's grown even grander...

So, in my last post I extolled the joys of grandmother-hood...
and today God has added to my joy
by revealing that our next grandbaby (the first Simmons) will be a BOY
(Sweet Husband's chest was just a bit broader this afternoon)
and grandbaby number 3 will be from ETHIOPIA!!

Is God crazy GOOD or what?!?!

I cannot put into words,
nor hit the computer keys with enough passion to convey,
how totally ecstatic I am by BOTH of these blessings!!

The first "Simmons" grandbaby, born to Josh and Meggie,
will arrive, God willing, around the first part of June.
The second "Hedger" grandbaby, adopted by Bethany and Peter,
will arrive, God willing, by the end of the year...
or in approximately ten months or so.

Sweet Husband and I were recently musing
about having two grandsons...
one from Tennessee and one from New York City.

Can you just imagine the conversations?

Of course, now the scenario has changed significantly...
one from Tennessee, one from New York City...
and one grandchild from Ethiopia!!

Just how much grander can this grandparent thing get?
