Something made me come back and reflect on this thread I started just over a year ago...
Now I'd like to share an update. My granddaughter is now 14 months old. She is beautiful and smart and funny, loves to dance, and is a joy to have around. When she was 5 months old, her Mommy woke up one day, postpartum gone, and suddenly took on the child caring role as if she'd been doing it all along. They have moved to a much larger house and it's still a mess, but I've resigned myself to that. I grew up in house that was always a mess.
The cat died last month. My son was totally broken... a reminder that your kids never really stop falling down. We've buried him here in our back yard.
A week ago another child was born... a grandson... healthy and adorable. No postpartum for Mom thankfully. I don't think they planned on another baby quite so soon, but my husband said its my fault for taking the first baby every Friday night
Today they were in court to deal with the Mom's now 4 year old that's been in foster care. This child was returned to their custody today. She's a sweet girl and we have welcomed her as our own grandchild.
I hope for only good things for them as a family, and worry less.
