My Grandson is Getting Married

I married young and became a grandmother when I was 47. My grandson is carrying on the tradition. He’ll be 25 when he and his fiancée marry next May. My husband has Alzheimer’s but I am praying he’ll be well enough to enjoy the wedding, on an island in the Chesapeake. My soon-to-be granddaughter-in-law just ordered her wedding gown, a gorgeous mermaid style in lace and silk which emphasizes her beautiful figure. I just hope to become a great grandmother before I’m 75.

Re: My Grandson is Getting Married

I love to hear stories about 20 somethings marrying instead of "shacking up."

 

As for being a "young" grandmother at 47 I had a chuckle.  I live in a 55 plus community full of GREATgrand parents just barely in their "50's.  A few late 40's.  Not because they married young but because their grands started having babies in their "teens."

"Never argue with a fool. Onlookers may not be able to tell the difference."
