Grandmother Names

So, now I am trying to come up with a grandmother name. Not one that is old fashioned, that is just not me. I need one that is hip and stylish, lots of flair, and unforgetable, because that is the kind of grandmother I wish to be, unforgetable!

I don't care if anyone else remembers anything about me, but I sure want to leave a legacy for my children and grandchildren that they would be proud of. After I'm gone I pray that they will sit around and talk about all the crazy and funny things I did while they were growing up (...and there are plenty of the CRAZY things to talk about!). Hopefully I have embarrased them, at some point, AND made them proud. (Embarrasing my children is something I do really well. I plan to continue that tradition as I enter into this new era of my life.) I just want them to have unforgetable moments with me that are full of love and laughter.

Some people take life so seriously and forget that they have the right to experience joy! I want to experience a moment of joy and laughter every day. I feel there is too much drama in the world, I want to add some spice!

As I ponder the thought of being a grandmother I have a warm feeling that rises from within. I can not wait to see those sweet little faces, and to kiss their little cheeks. I still can not fathom the pure joy of adding little ones to our brew.

One thing I know for sure is that I am going to lavish each moment as it comes. I think as a young mother I looked to the future too often. I couldn't wait until they were out of diapers, could bathe themselves, could go to school, could drive, and so on. I realize NOW that I rushed through some really special moments that I will never have back. As a grandmother I refuse to do that.

I can not fathom the thought that I get to somehow make a mark on another generation. I pray I do this right! What is the right way to do this? You know, I believe it is to walk as Jesus walked in front of this new generation who will be here soon. To love as he did, to touch as he did, to provide as he did and to teach at every moment just as he did. That is what I want to be to the new generation...Jesus' hands and feet.

Well, I am still looking for the perfect name, any suggestions? (Please make it hip and fabulous!) I gotta run, I am looking up granny names on the internet!

Oh, by the way, I am going to teach the babies to call my husband Grumpy!! It fits, doesn't it?! Later! ;o)
