Unfortunately, the only feasible route to grandparenthood involves having your own children first.<BR/><BR/>I find that I'm having broody moments more often. I really enjoyed your post about it. (Unfortunately, my broody moments also end in tears, except that they are my own!)-Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359625931588140579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11797778.post-1152687160852178502006-07-12T07:52:00.000+01:002006-07-12T07:52:00.000+01:00Buddess - I've managed to reach the ripe old age o...Buddess - I've managed to reach the ripe old age of 34 without ever changing a nappy. I don't intend starting now, lol!<BR/><BR/>Angel - <I>Ja</I> that one. Not my idea of fun.<BR/><BR/>Delboy - That's entirely possible; we'll have to test that theory soon. I should warn you though, babies tend to cry a lot when they look at me. I must look scary or something.<BR/>Puppies like me though! ;-)Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158421102740382411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11797778.post-1152658994521269542006-07-12T00:03:00.000+01:002006-07-12T00:03:00.000+01:00Wait till you meet baby Josh.

I like the grandkids idea!! Puppies are more work than "The smaller, cuddly , dribbly,smelly versions that are sleep deprivation artists" believe you me!!! At least you can slap a nappy on to a baby....Framesby 86https://www.blogger.com/profile/17744302466467569278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11797778.post-1152602093590536262006-07-11T08:14:00.000+01:002006-07-11T08:14:00.000+01:00Spookie - don't hold your breath, hehe!Fence - Plu...Spookie - don't hold your breath, hehe!<BR/><BR/>Fence - Plus there's the whole sleep-deprivation and dirty nappy thing.
