KathieB Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Ivy, I'm sorry you won't get to be in your grandbaby's life. I have a delightful granddaughter who I've seen just twice in her six years because they live so far away. It's sad, I know. Maybe the ranch life won't be as great as they think it will and they'll move back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I have six lovely grandchildren and haven't met but only one of them who is now 16 years old and I met him when he was one year old. The rest I have photos of. I live in rural Montana and they all live in Massachusetts....I don't get along well with my daughter either, so please don't feel that you are all alone in this. It's just life...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa_F Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I am sorry you aren't going to be able to actively participate in your grandbaby's life. It is difficult on the heart, being a grandparent to a child that is across the country. I get along wonderfully with my son, but he & his wife moved back to her home state prior to my granddaughter being born last year so that my DIL could be near her mother who is in poor health. I've seen my granddaughter only twice since her birth and I've shed plenty of tears over that. I never dreamed I'd not be able to be actively involved in my grandchild's life. I send tons of gifts to her and get lots of pictures in return, and then I flew out there shortly after her birth and flew them out here for Thanksgiving and I'm thankful for that time with her, but it's just not the same as being able to see her anytime I want.
