One of the biggest shocks ever..........
So, I'm leaving Home Depot one day and a text message comes through (from Facebook, no less) on my phone. It read, "hello jill its kelli i was just letting you know that you will be a grandmother! I don't know if daniel has got in touch with you or not so i figured i would let you know! im 8 weeks."
Since it was about 98 degrees with ridiculously high humidity I thought I misread it. So, I read it again..........and again, and again. They I called my husband, Andy, and read it to him. We were speechless. I can't say that I was immediately thrilled. You see, our oldest son, Daniel, was incarcerated at the time. NOT TO MENTION, this meant that I was gonna be a mumzie at FORTY-TWO! :)
The past few months have been a roller coaster. The job market is slim pickins and neither has been able to find work. But I know that ultimately, this will all work out because I know God has this under control and I truly believe that Daniel and Kelli really do love each other.
I CANNOT wait to snuggle my first grandson, Drake Charlton, when he gets here. And I CANNOT wait to be a mumzie....even if I am 42!
Here are some pics:

Can't wait to meet my new great-nephew! Actually, I have yet to meet that nephew. :-)
I'll pray that God will provide for their needs.
oh WOW! What a way to find out! So glad Drake is here and bringing happiness to you Jill. Hey, let Andy know I'm not having a 2nd weight loss surgery. It was a no-go with insurance and since then, I've just not found the timing I need for another huge ordeal like that.
