New grandson!

On Monday I became a grandfather. My son and daughter-in-law had a baby boy. Woohoo! Now I'm feeling MUCH older . . . .

Congrats!! My first one will be here at the end of the month. When I married my wife, I became a step pappaw, but this one will be the first blood grandbaby.

I'm very, very happy for you!!
