What beautiful, beautiful, precious children. I'm getting caught up here all at once and thinking that life is never easy. What a wonderful grandma you are. The "rugrats" are so fortunate to have your love and your presence.

How precious this will be. I know it will be trying at times. But since you have aged the children will be much easier than earlier because mentally you can side step much you ran into head on before. They are just adorable little boys....

With all the other things going on, which they will necessarily become more and more aware of, you may well become a kind of anchor for your rug rats, the most important person in their lives...

Oh yes, kids truly are so great. They have brought me plenty of smiles over the years.

That's sounds like a tough situation. My wife and I don't have any children, and our marriage and relationship is wonderful and very solid, so I can't honestly say that I might ever be in your boat at any time, and I can't completely empathize with your plight either. But any kind of family-related stress can't be easy to cope with. Life is tough enough. I hope you can do better than a roll of duct tape. Oh, and by the way, you must remember . . . when they're in the house, they're rug rats. But when they go outside, they're yard apes. My friend pointed that out to me the other day!

It is a strange situation Adnohr, but what actually is strange. The kids are being looked after and that is the main problem . I suppose people change and this a is a positive outcome. Do take care of yourself though, I wish there were someone nice who would pamper you a little, but I suppose it helps if folk respond gently. Go on smile

Kids adapt, sometimes better than their parents do.
As long as they're loved and get reassurance that's the case, they'll adjust. Keeping my fingers crossed that everyone comes through this with minimim bruising. Hugs to you and your guys... :)

It was good to read that everyone is helping out the best they can in this transition! I know in the beginning it will be fun for the kids but I worry down the road the impact it will have on them! Somehow I get the feeling the DIL is being a bit selfish in all of this but that's just me! No one said marriage and family would be easy but who actually knows what goes through the minds of others! I believe you will be fine in all of this because family is so important to you and no doubt there will be great stories for you to tell! Hang in there and all will be well! sam
