Speaking of the little bit o'sunshine mentioned in my post this morning ... Earlier today just before lunch, I'm sitting at my desk and my
cellphone rings. I see it's my daughter who lives in Canada, I pick it
up and place it to my ear:
Me: Yeeees?
Her: Hey Momsk, whatcha doing?
Me: I'm at work, working. Why, what are you doing?
Her: Oh, nothing. But guess what?
Me: You're pregnant, aren't you?
Her: *insert excited giggle here* Yes! I took a pregnancy test and there are two lines, the second one is light but I'm going to take another one in the morning again but the second line has even gotten darker now! I haven't even called Marc yet. I called you first. Mom! You're going to have another grandchild, #4! You're going to be a Lola again! *insert more shocked, excited giggles and laughter here*
Me: *smiling and thinking "Dang, breathe girl"*
So, to make a short story even shorter, unofficially as of right now it looks like I'll be expecting grandbaby #4 in about 8 1/2 months. This will be her second. This wasn't an "accident", baby #2 was planned just as her first child. They started putting their plan into action for baby #2 about a month ago.
I've tried to brainwash my kids by saying, "Two each, then you're done".
So, that means two of them have already met their quota. Yeah, yeah I know. It's wishful thinking.

Note:
Just in case you're wondering about the title of this post. I'm called
"Lola" by my grandkids rather than the usual traditional grandmother
names.
