We trooped up London the other day to celebrate the 2nd birthday of the great grandson, a jungle themed eatery was our destination and we had a table of 16, mostly adults. The 3½ year old great granddaughter probably had the best time she really loved watching the animatronics moving and got quite excited every time the thunder rolled.
We are a stepped generational family and we have stopped trying to explain to others who is who and what the relationship is, for when all is said and done family is family and the generations just self-select into their own age groupings.
The nephews and nieces are also having children now as well and the exciting news is that we are expecting a new grandchild at the beginning of next year which we are so looking forward to.
What this all means is that after a considerable gap when we had no small children in the family we now have several little ones (and two more on the way), running around at family parties. It is just great watching the next generation arrive and begin to form relationships with each other and I for one just can’t wait to see how large this batch is going to be!
