Hey. Don't want to make everybody depressed that comes here. Things are going okay with son and d-i-l. I'm not happy (nor are they) with the relationship they have, but I'm not going to stress about it. She's beginning to play "mind games." We all see it, but aren't paying attention to it. We just do a lot of what she asks so that we can keep grandson in our lives. It's nothing really bad. At this point, it's just about the hours that we can see him. The latest example is that she chose to "tell us" exactly when we had to bring grandson back to her after we'd kept him for the night. Not a biggie. The fact was that when we brought him back, she wasn't there. She said she had to have him back at this particular time so that she could see him before she went to school on Monday. (...college.) So we brought him home and she wasn't there. Son called her and she was out at a movie. Umm... We had to have him back at a specific time for her -- and she purposely chose to be elsewhere for 3 more hours. Hmmm...
OK. She does this frequently.
You know, I said I wasn't going to dwell. The main thing is that we have that angel with us. I had him last night, and I'm going back to get him in the morning (after she goes to school), and will have him all night again!
We've told son that our house is open to him and the baby. Anytime. No matter what.
He's thinking seriously about it.
And while we aren't dwelling, let me please show you a couple of pics of the precious little angel!
;)
He's smiling!!
We call this "kissy face."
Now he sleeps....
As you may be able to tell, after work, he takes up a great portion of my life. He is precious. I love him more than words can say.
If you couldn't tell....
:D
P.S. He is, as of yesterday, 5 weeks old.

Thank you for sharing & feel free to write whatever you need to when you blog Tammy. You won't depress anyone. We want to be there for you through the good and the bad... just like you are for us.
Big hugs! <3
Sorry to hear what is going on with your daughter in law!You're in my prayers!
He is a precious lil man!
whatever it is, it'll sort itself out in time. am praying for you, for strength and patience. whatever it is that you're going through, it's definitely worth that cutie in the pictures. he'll grow up to be the wonderful person that he's meant to be because his nanna fought to show him how much he is adored.
OH MY GOSH!!!! He's precious. Those pictures just made my heart swell. I know your heart must be nearly busting with joy.
Sorry about the d-i-l. The saddest thing (IMHO) is that she's using to play her games. Thank goodness he has y'all.
I don't really know, because I've never had a child, but I don't think I would leave my 5 week old child alone by choice. Work, school -- necessities. but a movie? Especially when the "return time" was specified. But, I'm being judgemental now ... sorry.
And, I agree with Deeds. You blog what you like, what you want to and what you NEED to! I come here because I care about you. I want to be able to celebrate the good with you and support you when things aren't so good. Baby, that's what life is made of -- good and bad times. There can be no light without darkness. We'll be here to dance in the light with you and hold your hand in darker times. Okie dokie?
Ooop ... I left out an important word. "The saddest thing (IMHO) is that she's using that precious child to play her games." *red faced*
Your baby is so precious!! Ther will always be issues with 'mom'. This is just the beginning. Just be patient and be kind. The kindness, well, she just won't understand. It will blow her mind!! She likes to argue, right?? It takes two!! Remember that!!! Big hug!!!
