Grumpybutfun Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 My oldest daughter called me yesterday. Guess who in going to be a grand poppy? My wife is thrilled. I'm feeling extremely protective of my little girl. Her bf called my wife, worried that I was going to kill him. My wife asked me why I was cleaning my S&W. No reason, Grumps 20 Link to post Share on other sites

TAV Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 You seem such a great dad, you will be a super grandpa too! Congrats!! Now the bf can show you what he is really made of. Girls choose their SO according to the example their father set, so he should be ok. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Grumpybutfun Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 My wife is nesting for when the baby comes. We live hundreds of miles away from our daughter but she is baby proofing. She's so sweet. Hey, she is going to be a grandma, she can do what she wants. She found a gray hair yesterday. She cried and I showed her mine but she felt it is different with women and men. Yes, it is because I don't care. I'm going to be a grandpa. Wow. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

It still feels a little surreal at times. But like I said, it's fantastic. As much as I enjoyed and do enjoy my kids, spending time with my grandson is on another level. 7 Link to post Share on other sites
writergal Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Grumpy that's awesome news! I'm sure your daughter's boyfriend is a good egg. Congrats Gramps! 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Grumpybutfun Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Grumpy that's awesome news! I'm sure your daughter's boyfriend is a good egg. Congrats Gramps! I had my doubts but he is growing on me. He just sent me a text and said he asked my daughter to marry him but she refused. I told him she will ask him when she is ready. Poor man. I may have raised my kids to be a little too independent. My wife keeps dancing around the house and I'm in a constant state of happiness which is freaking me out.

I shouldn't laugh because the boyfriend probably feels disappointed, but at least you have proof that you did a fantastic job with your daughter! Well dance around the house with your wife, then you won't feel so freaked out. Do the cha-cha, the time step, Walk Like An Egyptian or Moonwalk and you'll feel better. Again, congratulations on your first grandchild Grumps! 3 Link to post Share on other sites
littleplanet Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 That they are old enough to have sex is surreal to me though my daughter is pregnant by immaculate conception, of course. G Grumps, if that were true, you'd need to be cleaning more than a S&W! Fats & congrats you lucky old so and so. You get to do it all over again! But be prepared. Once the dam blows, and flood could be a-comin'. These notions tend to run contagious. If you're not careful, you're gonna wind up a patriarch. Verily. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Grumpybutfun Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 I'm a little choked up. My wife just told me that my daughter told her that she is going to name her baby, regardless of gender, after me. I have a highly unusual name, poor kid. G 6 Link to post Share on other sites
