One Proud and Excited Grandmother

I went to my newsagent for a newspaper and she excitedly said to me, "My grandson brought a girlfriend home yesterday evening! He just said, ' Ah Mah, here's my girlfriend' ".

I could see that she was rather proud and excited about it and I said, "Congratulations! You may be a great grandmother soon!"

She smiled broadly and then went on to tell the others who came to buy newspapers about her grandson having a girlfriend. She was one proud and excited grandmother. She was much younger than I. She must have got married when she was in her very early teens and so must have her son.

I wonder whether I would have the opportunity to see my oldest grandson have a girlfriend one day in the very distant future. He's just turned six!
