I suppose I should let it out...
This goat, despite never having experienced parenthood, has ascended to the heady regions of grandparenthood. Well, to be a bit more specific, ungrandparenthood. The infant has absolutely zip of my genetic materials, but is a full descendant of Swimmer, my domestic partner. Her eldest son, Unson #1, and his wife (you may remember the pirate wedding?) produced their first child about two weeks back....a daughter, subsequently named Kayleejane Elenor. She will probably go by Kaylee, as that's what her parents call her.
So...Last weekend, I was forced to drive north to the Seattle area so the new gramma could get a ration of baby magic to tide her over until the holiday peregrinations. Although the trip was largely for the benefit of Swimmer, I got to hold my first baby. And, despite my belief that most new infants usually look a LOT alike, I could quite easily discern that Kayleejane has a nose very, very much in the likeness of her mother's nose. I guess it's good thing that everyone will know she is her mother's daughter?
Anyway...I'm a proud and confused new ungrampus.
