Today I wish to share my joy with you 😀
Last night I became a Grandma. My son and his girlfriend got a little boy. This is really huge for me. This is my first Grand Kid and I feel so very happy
In short time, I will bring up some photos of the little boy
If you have followed my blog for longer time, you know, that I have two adult kids, a young man and a young woman. Both of them decided to get kids now, my daughter is pregnant and should give birth in February, so the happiness will be double up 😀
While I lay in ICU in the hospital, both of my kids visited me here in Spain. When I woke up, they both gave me these gifts by telling me, I would become 2 x Grandma, which absolutely gave me more to live and fight for. This I had in mind, while I did practice to learn everything from scratch again, like how to walk and eat by myself
Of course I wish to travel and visit the little new family in Denmark, when I can in near future
Live every day – tomorrow is never for sure
Irene

Such wonderful news Irene. Congratulations 😍
Thank you very much Bridget and yes, this are wonderful news 😀
Hi Irene! I have taken the time to catch up and wow, I missed a lot. I have isolated myself so much that I didn’t even feel like visiting blogs. I am glad to read that your health is improving and I send my positive feelings of good health. As far as the grandson, congratulations! Also, congratulations on the news of your daughter’s pregnancy. Grandchildren would be such a gift! I have my kid’s dogs and cats that I call grandkids but I can’t wait until we have some additions. Keep smiling and be patient and love those around you! ❤
Thank you April and relax. Depression isn’t easy just to get rid of, even if it would be wonderful, I know.
My kids have also taken their time to be young, before they decided to be ready for having kids. I find it better, that they feel ready and mature enough, before the kids come.
I’m so very happy to get Grand Kids now, especially when I see, how good parents, they will be. Thank you again, April ❤
Congratulations Irene – I am so happy for you. ❤
Thank you very much, Mavis ❤

Congratulations! Are you back in the hospital?
Thank you LeeAnn and no, I’m home now. I go for many tests to avoid to get sick again and the doctors say, that I will need to do this for at least the next two years.
I’m fighting with the side effects after the come, which can take long time, I have heard.
I do come around and read blogs, but not as much as earlier and I don’t post so much yet either.
Wish you a nice day.
Same to you. Just work on getting better! 🙂
Thank you.
Beautiful. I wish I had a chair just at the shore.
Thank you very much, Cecilia 😀
Oh Irene, this is the BEST NEWS ever.. How wonderful for you. Congratulations to your Son and his partner. and Soon your daughter also will give birth in the new year.. So close together .. Double JOY!..
I am thrilled for you.. Being a grandma myself, its the best ever feeling. and I know you have now extra incentive to grow ever stronger so you can travel and see them.
If I could jump up and down without the laptop falling off my knee I would..
BIG SMILES.. I am so very Happy for you and your family Irene..

Couldn’t be happier for you. Enjoy your grandchild in every way possible. May this be a blessing that adds ongoing joy to your life.
Thank you very much, Jonathan 😀
Congratulations! Wonderful news for you Irene. I hope you are feeling stronger 💕💚
Thank you very much, Karen 😀
I am feeling stronger, little by little, thank you.
Yay! Congratulations! I have been surprised at how much I longed to be with my grand kids after I bonded with them. They live 6 and 12 hours away from me, so I have to talk on the phone and send cards. But there is nothing like being there. Enjoy!
Thank you very much 😀
I do understand you. I live in Spain and my Son and Grand Son in Denmark and my Daughter lives in Germany, so we have many hours of traveling between us too.
Safe travels!
Thank you and you too 🙂
Oh how wonderful, Irene! BIG congratulations to you and family 🙂
Thank you very much, Christy 😀
Reblogged this on Dream Big, Dream Often.
Thank you for the reblog, Danny 😀
You are welcome!
Congratulations! In my experience, the love you feel is overwhelming, even more than for your own children’s birth, in my case. Good luck in your recovery and yes, each day is worth the fight.
Thank you very much and yes, it is overwhelming. I’m just happy, that I have done my part of the act of giving birth 🙂
Wow, Irene. What exciting news! What a beautiful grandma your grandson has! And another to come! I couldn’t be happier for you. I hope you gain strength and energy daily so that you can travel to see both grandkids soon. :0)
Thank you so very much, Linda 😀
Now you know, why I haven’t been so much online.
So, So wonderful.
Yes, it is.
So happy for you Irene, what wonderful news. Keep well and enjoy your grandchildren no doubt they will fill your life with much happiness. xxx
Thank you so very much, Marje 😀
Irene I am so delighted for you and as you say, something to fight and live for. It will be a wonderful day when you hold both of them in your arms. ♥
Thank you so very much, dear Sally 😀
I’m looking forward to meet both of them and first my new little Grand Son.
Irene, I sat here and cried with joy for your wonderful news! I’m so thrilled for you! Happiness and joy is all yours. Hugs and love my dear friend. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so very much, dear Colleen 😀
Hugs and love for you too ❤
So happy to visit your lovely blog, and be able to share in your joyous announcement. Many congrats to you, Irene.
Thank you very much, Van 😀
Irene I could not be happier for you. What a wonderful joy being a grandma is. I watch my friends and how there heart swells at just the mention of their little ones. I’m glad too that it has given you an extra incentive to get well – Hope all is going well with your recovery. Congratulations again Mormor. Cheers Irene
Thank you very much, Irene 😀
This time I became Farmor (fathers mother) and in the spring I will become Mormor (mothers mother)
Yes, I really got great reasons for my recovering 😀
I didn’t understand the subtly. My friend only has daughters. What a great way of knowing the relationship of a grandparent to the child and what better reason to keep getting better.
Thank you, Irene. We do also have an older word for being Grand parents, which is mutual for all of them, like in English. It is Bedstemor (Best Mom)and Bedstefar (Best Dad), which also means Grand Mother and Grand Father. You are right, a great reason to getting better.
So would one be more used by children about their own particular grand parent and bedstemor more generally when referring to grandmother. A bit like our grandma or nanna is used by the children but if in a conversation like here we would talk grandmothers.
It is different from family to family. Some call their Grand parents Bedstemor and Bedstefar, I did with my fathers father. My mothers mother, I have always called Mormor. I think, that we will get different answers, up to who we ask.
Thanks for the explanation Irene. I find it interesting.
Congratulations! one of the most beautiful stages of life that you just entered! hope you enjoy it with peace beside your precious family.
Thank you 😀
Congratulations. I am so happy for you and your family!!!!
Thank you very much, Bee 😀
🙂 x
Irene I am just finding this. Congratulations. What a great year coming up!
Thank you so very much, Holly 😀
may your continuation
be as creative, vital
& loving as yourself 🙂
Thank you very much 😀
Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you.
You’re welcome!
Oh, Irene…this is such fantastic news. There is nothing better than Grandchildren. Thank you for sharing this important and oh so positive life changing event. Good News is Good News!
Thank you very much JoHanna and yes, this is really good news 😀
Irene, what a fantastic news! Double Grandma! Congratulations!!! So happy for you! You will love being a Grandma, and I am sure that such a great news will help you get better because happiness is the best healer. Such a blessing, two little loves are joining your family ❤
Thank you very much, Inese 😀
Congratulations! Being a grandmother is way easier than being a mother. That is always a pleasure, and you can always help with advise. Definitely, good news.
I have 2 grandchildren, 1 is 19 years and the other is 14. Both quite adult. They do a lot of amazing things.
Thank you very much, Inese 😀
I feel, that I have done my duty with my kids, so now Grand Kids yes. I think, that there will be lots of fun to come.
