Leave it to a car commercial to trigger memories and thoughts about life and its cycle now that my baby granddaughter has been born. I was beyond thrilled when each of my boys were born, but a girl… say it with me, paradigm shift. I gotta get used to pink again, and frills and bows and accessories.
I never knew my grandparents. I was so fortunate that my daughter knew my parents and even more fortunate and grateful that they invested so much of themselves into her life. And now, I hope that I can be half the grandma to this baby girl that my mom was to my own daughter…
And the cycle of life continues.
