5:15 am and she called. She called to let her Me know that the hospital said to go in about 7am Today to give birth to her Son! I am Avo! Portugese for Grandma and Avo is the name my children called my Grandma. My 2 1/2 year old granddaughter, Charlotte, calls me Vovy...and soon her little baby brother will do the same. There are peaks and valleys in life and this is a Peak Moment for which I am deeply grateful. My Daughter had a fairly easy time of it delivering my Granddaughter and I am praying for the same experience this time around. Naturally, I am excited and a bit worried...but have great hope and faith that all will go well. I pray for an easy delivery and for a healthy Mommy and Baby. My Grandmas Birthday is tomorrow, July 18, and my Grandson will be born sometime today, July 17, 2017. Being born so close to her Birthday I know that he has a special Angel in her and that she will be protecting him from this moment on As well as my parents in Heaven. Their spirits were there when Charlotte was born and they are there now with my daughter and her new soon to be born Son. I am on Charlotte duty for 3 days. I will pick her up at 6 am this morning. We'll go to Denny's for breakfast and then over to target to get her a new toy and to get her brother a Birthday Present. Then back to my place for swimming and lunch...and maybe off to the library for storytime this afternoon. It is my responsibility to remain calm and to simply shower my granddaughter with love and affection through this wonderful time.
