	After my intial excitement of learning that I was going to be a Grandmother, my thoughts turn to what will I be called, what are the nicknames? My son laughed, how about Grannie he said. No, not Grannie that sounds to old. The nickname, Grandmother sounded far to formal, Nanny, well that is my Mum. This is something I had never thought of before; what will I be called? There was no hesitation for my husband; my daughter-in-law quickly said he was definitely a Grampie. But, I knew for sure I was not a Grannie.

	My Story - how I found out I was going to be a Grandmother: My son and daughter in law arrived unexpectedly at our home one evening. While we were surprised to see them, as always, we were delighted they stopped in. My daughter-in-law was carrying a gift bag. And, she handed the bag to me. This gift bag made me stop and think, it wasn't my birthday, nor was it Mother's Day, so what was this special occasion that they brought me a gift? Opening the bag, I was delighted to find a bag of my favourite candies, but then below the candies was another bag. What is this I wondered? Pulling it out of the bag, I realized it was a pregnancy test. I looked at my daughter-in-law and then my son, "Oh my" I said it over and over. I was so excited, it was like a feeling I have never had before. It was similar to hearing for the first time that I was pregnant, but this was even better! Picking a name can be challenging. However, no matter what name you choose, that new special baby will end up calling you what they decide. But, truly, no matter what my new grandchild calls me, it really doesn't matter because I know I will love them with all my heart!
