and it started on Friday morning at 915.... that phone call.... the one that said... "mom, i'm pregnant." my baby girl, my first born, is having a baby....
yes, i'm gonna be a grandma.... i will be 39 years old when this grandchild is born. Katie will be 20 (unless born before 12/3) and my mom will be 60. If my grandmother lives to the birth, she will be 85 (i think) That will make 5 generations.
it could have been worse...
instead of being almost 20, she could have been almost 16
instead of being a h/s graduate, she could have been a h/s drop out
instead of being employed full time w/benefits, she could be unemployed
so... yeah... it's been interesting to say the least. plus, to add additional stress to the situation, the baby will be mixed. so, that went over like a lead balloon with her dad. it has not been fun...
but i love katie, and support her (although i don't condone or approve) through this. she needs love and support right now... not someone giving her grief. it's not like this was a planned thing... since not even 4 months ago did i hear her mutter the words "i'm never having kids"
even katie said "mom, this happened for a reason, if i wasn't supposed to be here right now, i wouldn't be." so, God has brought this child into our lives, this baby is here for a reason... we just don't know what it is yet...
with that, i'm spent... nite folks...
