    I became Great Grandfather last week

    My Grand Daughter gave birth to twin girls eight days ago. She was only 29 weeks but the babies are doing well. The babies will have to stay in the hospital for about 5 more weeks. Grand Daughter is doing well and was released from the hospital on Friday last week.
    If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.

    Congratulations Down South! You are going to love every minute of being as great grandfather. Glad to hear mother and children are doing well.
    I am a great grandfather with two great grandchildren and one in the mold.

    Congratulations to all.
    Please pass along my encouragement to your grand daughter and her husband. I know how having your baby in the hospital can strain one emotionally and physically. They are going to need some support. We only had to deal with it for three days. I was a mess.

    Congrats. Premies usually catch up quick. Great Grandpaw. Man as fun as grandkids are, great grandkids gotta be twice the fun.

    I'm going on number 8 great grand child so welcome to the club. My grand kids range in age (those with kids) from 25 down to 21. And here I am only 67 myself. But I guess that is what happens when one marries young. Congratulations to your grand daughter and yourself for sure. Yes
