We received pics from SilverDaughter last night.....here's one! She calls everyday and just chats away. The family that she's staying with has vonage so calls are local.

Wow
Speaking of beautiful - holy cow! your daughter is gorgeous. Mr. Silver is going to need a shot gun or a baseball bat before you know it! LOL
PS: thanks - yea, we are proud of her. This painting is particular special to us because all the people in it are family. DH, his brother, nieces.Last edited by LadyinWhite; 06-13-2007 at 08:32 AM.

Mary! your grandkids are just darling! And I have seen in your postings just how much joy they give you!
However with a 16, almost 17 year old, let me say that grandkids are the very LAST thing I want right now
I understand....grandkids are a "look forward to in the distant future" thing!"Being retired from Biking...isn't that kinda like being retired from recess?" Stephen Colbert asked of Lance Armstrong

Awww, Mary your grandchildren are lovely as are you.
I too look forward to grandchildren, but in the much distant future.

OMG, Silver Daughter is Gorgeous. For those who are just getting empty nest syndrome, it DOES get easier. The reward, eventually you may get wonderful beautiful grandchildren to love too.
Hope I didn't just make it worse..
Don't think of it as getting hot flashes. Think of it as your inner child playing with matches

You're right....that's when I get to wind them up on sugar, buy them loud and obnoxious toys, and then send them home to go to bed Originally Posted by mary9761
