Depends on the age of your children...

I look forward to become Grandpa, though it will probably take a few more years. (Boys are 23, 21 and 17)

Thanks Suzi, GBS, JS, Rob, the baby is believed to be a girl, due in April. They picked a name, but I'd prefer to keep that private. I'd be glad to exchange PMs with anyone. 🙂
So April has arrived how about the granddaughter?

She's a bit world shy it seems. 🙂 It might be as soon as the Third or as late as the 10th. 🙂

Let's pray that your daughter delivers without any serious difficulties or complications involving the infant.

P.S. My daughter Heidi Lynn's birthday is tomorrow April 2.

Interesting (to me anyway) story.
The city chess club years ago was held in a bar and grill downtown. There was a waitress with the name of Arthel. Just one letter different than the (unusual) spelling of my name. Arthel being the feminine form of Arthur. Her friends called her Artie as do mine. The kicker is, we had the same last name. She was a young college aged adult and an African American. We laughed about being twins. 🙂

My granddaughter isn't doing very well. She's had a hard time breathing. They have transferred her to Children's Hospital. Please include Ariah in your thoughts and prayers. We want our little girl to come home and be loved.
