For grandparents, these years can pass surprisingly quickly. One moment, children need help with almost everything. Before long, they are making their own decisions, building relationships and raising children of their own.
Lionel’s experience is a reminder of that familiar journey. Although his life has been far from ordinary, the emotions he describes are easy to understand.
There is pride in seeing children succeed. There is happiness in watching them find love. And there is something especially touching about meeting a new grandchild and imagining all the memories that lie ahead.
Of course, every family has its own story. But the arrival of a baby often brings relatives closer together and gives everyone a reason to celebrate.
