After years of freaking out that at least ONE of my kids might drop a sprogger prematurely and make me a prematurely young grandmother, my eldest (daughter) has informed me that **I AM GONNA BE A NANNA** , W00tZers.

She’s neurotic (but happy) and I am just chuffed.

Nannas unite, yeah!!!

Congratulations! Grandchildren are nature’s reward for having been a parent.

I’m not sure what chuffed means, but if it means something good, then congratulations! Else, condolences.

Enjoy your new family!
