A to Z April Challenge Letter E
The E’s. Emma and Eli. Emma is four. ย Eli is 3. They are hysterical!! The are perfect! They are MY Grandbabies. Emma, my first Grandchild changed my life so much! I can’t even describe how much love I have for this little girl. She is wicked smart! Talented and beautiful. She taught me that being a NaNa was the GREATEST feeling on earth!! ย Emma is so perfect I started begging MORE Grandbabies!! ย I need more Grandbabies!!
(My poor kids!! I’m such a nag!!) ย One is NOT enough!! 
Happily, along came Eli and this little guy is the sparkle in my eye!!
Eli is a NaNa’s boy and a tease! I MIGHT get a kiss… or he may run and make me chase him. Or he may GROWL loudly “NANA COME HERE NOW!!!!!”
I couldn’t be a happier NaNa if I tried!!
Except… well…… Zachary….. I know you aren’t dating anyone right now…. but…. the girls each gave me Grandkids…. don’t be a slacker……
E is for Emma and Eli. The E’s.
A to Z Challenge blog everyday except Sunday (per the rules) with my theme being what makes me happy, what inspires me and what makes meย ME!!! ย So be prepared for more information about me than you ever wanted to know!!

There’s certainly something special about grandchildren which you don’t fully realise until they come along. Mind you, there are days it’s good to give them back too ๐

They are so cute. by the sounds of things you are a very good Nana. I am sure they are just as crazy about you as you are about them.
Dani
They are so cute! My mom is called Nana too! And I gave her 4, ugh! Lol

Grandchildren certainly sound like fun. I’m happy to wait a while, though. My daughter’s only 9.

Hello… I know how you love them… My grandbabies are all grown up, married, and having babies of their own, so I have great grandbabies, with more on the way. I love it… Your post made me smile. Best regards to you, my friend. Ruby

Wonderful! Beautiful grandbabies you’ve got there. Too funny about your message to your son. I’m the oldest of five, and so far three of us have delivered. Two more to go. No pressure. ๐

Aw, What a beautiful way to represent the letter E! They are adorable! I love being a grandparent, It’s God’s way of rewarding you for all those hard days of raising their parents! LOL! Oh and to Ryan, We are not getting any younger and we need to enjoy them while we are still out of the walkers and wheel chairs. LOL! Thanks Connie, for sharing some more of the wonderful times in your life.
Connie Gruning
Diane, I once saw a bummer sticker that said “Being a Grandparent is natures’s way of rewarding you for not eating your young”
LOL!! SEE?? We are the same!! Ryan and Zac get to work!!!
Ryan Naylor
Yep, you’re happy. Don’t pressure the kids too much though.

Your babies are just precious! I agree with you 100% grandchildren are just amazing. I cannot believe my oldest granddaughter is a senior in high school. I enjoy her and the other 12 so much..lol..its overwhelming in a great way. This weekend we have a 10 yr. old and a 3 yr.old with us.
I enjoyed your site and look forward to the rest of your a-z posts…good luck!!

Beautiful grandbabies! I love your Eli’s attitude. My 8-yo is still playful like that, and I can’t get enough of it. ๐
Jianne Carlo
Absolute cutie pies! I love their names.
I named one of my heroes – that’s because of Eli Manning though. Mrs. Manning raised her boys right.
Nice to meet you, Connie.
Connie Gruning
I’m an Manning fan too!! Mrs Manning did raise her boys right!
Maggid
Love, Love. Love what makes you happy!

They are gorgeous! I have a 25 and 18-year-old (girl and boy respectively) and I am looking forward and hoping to be a grandma some day. Neither of them are ready for that, but I do hope, some day!
Love and stuff,
