I am extremely happy to announce that this songbird will soon have a new tune to sing. God willing, I will officially become a grandma by the end of September. You can imagine... I am delighted and praying for this baby girl. Yes, my first grandchild will be a baby girl! I just had to share the news!!!

Congratulations, Songbird! I share your joy. My first grandchild arrived in April -- a girl! I made the purple and green quilt pictured to the left for her. We'll have to keep in touch and compare notes.

Thanks, ladies. I am truly delighted and praying that i can crochet something cute for the little one. I used to crochet such darling sets for babies when mine were infants and toddlers... and my son is hoping I can do the same for his child. I must confess I have not crocheted for years now, busy with writing, speaking, singing (not to mention my CTS).

I am definitely needing to work on a song for the little one too!!

Sandy, your quilt is beautiful! I don't even have a sewing machine anymore. But I used to enjoy sewing years ago, when I did have one.
Let's see what the Lord will have me do.
My friends have a "Welcome to the club" greeting when they learn of the news!

I don't think we ever forget how to crochet, Songbird! If that's what you decide to do, it will be like you never stopped.

Songbird,

Your joy is contagious, thanks for sharing your good news with us. I LOVE the idea of a song for the baby.

I always sang made-up songs for my kids, and I sang them with gusto, even though I'm not too great at carrying a tune. I figured they wouldn't complain, and they didn't. At least not until they were teens. And then of course, we went through that inevitable period when nothing I did was right.

Anyway, I still remember the special song I made up for my son. It was sung to the tune of "Guinevere" from Camelot. The refrain went, "Zachary, Zachary, To the rescue, Zachary..." I sang it whenever he needed calming or to have his fears eased. I found it really was effective.

Though not something I had ever been taught in any of my collegiate child development classes. LOL!

Great experience, Anne. We don't turn "Grandparents" for no reason. The experience in life has taught us many lessons others are still trying to figure out and are not ready to grasp!

It must be a challenge to be a grandparent, but one I will face cheerfully!

I am already collecting (in my mind) those Bible songs I used to sing to my little ones! Songs I learned as a child that have definitely impacted my relationship with my Creator. Simple words with profound impact til this day!
