Well that has changed. You do know that I am on the old side of life and have been a grandfather for quite awhile. Well that is going to change this summer. I am going to become a great grandpa. Hey, I know I am great (grin), but being a great grandpa sounds really old to me. Dang, wake up Dizzy and look in the mirror. Yep, I guess I am really old. Anyway, I am really excited about the birth of my great grand baby. I am excited about the upcoming event and am looking forward to seeing my first great grand son or daughter. Some of us, like me, keep getting old and will soon be leaving this world and some are born new into this world. I hope and pray that life in the world to come for my grandchild will be pleasant and treat him or her as well as possible. Now, you all have a great day, you hear?
Congratulations Dizzy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sixbears.
DeleteCongratulations, hope I will be around to be a great Grandpa too !
ReplyDeleteHope so, but one never knows.
DeleteThat is good news that you will be once again into changing diapers but on a great grand kid this time. HOORAY for you.
ReplyDeleteOh no, me change diapers? Not on your tin type.
DeleteDizzy what makes them great is there is the parents and grandparents cleaning up the mess you caused .
ReplyDeleteYes, Ted, you are so right on that.
DeleteCongratulations to the proud parents and to the grandparents and great grandparents as well. Two of my younger brothers are "greats" but I'm still just a grandma!
ReplyDeleteYou are still a grandma because you are not old enough to be a great grandma.
DeleteCongrats, DD
DeleteOh Dear! I am old, my oldest great grandchild is now an early teen.
Happy Trails and Trails, Penny
lol i did that on 9-11,,, actually never thot of it like that.
ReplyDeleteYou beat me, but I plan on catching up.
DeleteCongratulations! We just saw on Facebook yesterday that we'll have another great grandchild in August. Yeah... with our family it takes Facebook for us to find out anything. So happy for you...
ReplyDeleteThey say it is bad luck to say anything about it too far in advance, but I just got excited.
DeleteCongratulations! I have 7 greats and I believe I am a little younger. So much fun to see this newest generation to our family. And I know you will have a great time with yours
ReplyDeleteThanks, I sure am planning on having a great time with ours.
DeleteCongratulations on your upcoming great grandpa status. You are not "old" just mature. I am very happy for you.
ReplyDeleteSome days I an old, real old, but I am never mature. At least, I don't act mature. That is no fun.
DeleteWe all knew already that you were great, Dizzy! And I miss you when you're not posting ~ seems like you and Hermit Jim are just about the only ones, along with SixBears when he's got wifi, that post daily anymore. I count on that!!
ReplyDeleteI have been known to skip a few days now and then, but I usually try to post every day.
DeleteAh, the Great Dizzy-Dick will become a most awesome Great Grandpa. Compared to me, good sir, you are a most prolific blogger.
ReplyDeleteHere's to you and your family, good sir.

Thanks Klahanie. One thing for sure, it will be interesting and I hope a lot of fun. Fun is good, you know.
DeleteMy daughter never had kids, and I'm actually pretty at ease with the whole thing. I'm not "granny" to anyone, and don't have your type of worry on my mind for their future. Whew. All depends on how you look at it, eh gramps?
ReplyDeletegramps? No, not just gramps but great gramps. . . (grin). Of course one wants their blood line to continue and prosper in the future. But I will just be Alfred E. Newman and say, "what, me worry?".
