Perfect timing too. My flights were not United's finest hour but eventually I got to NY. Probably due to their recent bad publicity, they went out of their way to make up for it and put me up in hotels 2 nights, even though I was using my credit card miles amd flying free. Then I discovered the house there had run out of oil when I went to wash up for bed so I had to wait for a delivery on Monday and get the furnace going. Luckily the car started and the registration and inspection are still current so I was able to drive down to Reston, VA right afterward and got in just in time to tuck in grandson #1 and hit the sack myself. In the morning my daughter was told the baby was coming the next day, yesterday, and sure enough he did. Seven pounds, fourteen ounces - he's a keeper! I'm very glad it worked out because there really wasn't a plan B for grandson #1 while the parents are at the hospital and he and I are having a ball together. Mom and Dad come home tomorrow. I flew on a one way so I can hang around as long as they want me too and then head up to NY. I only saw my son for a couple of hours when he picked me up at LaGuardia so we're looking forward to some time together too. | ||

Congrats! Sounds like a great time as well. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Congrats! My third grandson (and last grandchild) was born January 6. We have him and his brother tomorrow night while daddy makes sure I get no more of them.

What wonderful news! Congratulations! It sounds like it all worked out just right- and how lucky they are to have you available to help if they need it- I'm sure grandson#1 will want a little extra time and attention right now, too , while he adjusts to being a big brother. __________________________ "Trust, but verify." | |||
