2019 was a major year in my life.
I became a grandmother.
A surprise" Yes, in so many ways"
I am a woman who knows her mind and is very rarely surprised about her’s or other people’s behavior. Forget that, I have completely become an enigma. Where have I gone" Who is this new VA" In many ways, she is the same and in others, she has completely broken her mold.
I don’t recognize the old version but I absolutely love the new one.
Becoming a grandmother was not something I had ever thought about" That is the truth. Some women long for babies and the day when their children settle down and start a family – I wasn’t that girl. Deep down I knew one day it would happen but it was never my focus. I adore babies but I was happy with my lot and felt no need for more. My children are heaven, we are close and every day I feel blessed.
I underestimated the joy a baby brings to the family.
We are besotted by our little guy and cannot get enough of him. I watched friends disappear for a time when they became grandparents – I didn’t understand. They talked at length about the feelings for a new member of the family; I listened but was far from comprehending.
A brag book of photos may not be in my handbag (I promised myself I would not bore the world with daily shots of our darling) but change me he has. My priorities...
