My Little Adopted Granddaughter.......

[DianaB]

Surprise.......Another granddaugher!!!! Actually she's not my REAL granddaughter but I've adopted her as mine.

When Jaci went to school the first time at fourth grade (she was homeschooled the other years) she made friends with a little girl named Jamie. They've been friends ever since. Jamie has been through some really tough times with her Mom.....to the point that she never wants to see her again.....and legally she doesn't have to. It's been really hard for Jamie but she has a good Dad and older sisters that have helped her. I've kinda' taken over as Mom....not pushy....but enough that she knows that if she ever needs me she can come to me. Well, Jamie got pregnant last year.....and Jaci was so mad at her......but things have smoothed out and her daughter, Alexis, is just a little doll!!! Jamie does have a step-mother but I'm not sure how close they are....so I've just appointed myself Alexis's grandmother!! I've watcher her several times and she is just one of the best babies that I've ever taken care of!!

For some reason Jamie didn't have a sitter for Monday so she called. So I had Lexi all day yesterday!! I loved it!! She is 10 months old now, crawling and pulling up.....and smiles every time you talk to her!! I didn't get a thing done yesterday but play with the baby!!!!

The first picture is when she was first waking up. Glen got down on her level to talk to her. Jazzi was right there to see what was going on!!!
