AND JUST WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN YOUNG LADY?

Said in that tone of voice that most of us have heard and many of us have used...

Well, um, well, really, you know, it was so weird, because, like, I was there, and I was like all ready to post, and then, you know, it was like all wierd and then this really cool thing happened and I was all like "Oh Wow!"
But really this really cool thing did happen and I really was like "Oh Wow." That really cool thing is named Antonio Michael (after his grandfathers) and my daughter, my baby, is his mom - and this all weird but really cool thing happened and I am a grandmother!
I had a conversationn with my daughter before the baby was born (being the oh-so-knowing mother) and tried to tell her how amazing it was to become a mother, how when that little life is placed in your arms for the first time and you look down on that face that you fall in love in a way you never have before, it's like stepping off a cliff you didn't even knoiw was there; it's so fast and stunning, so overwhelming and strong and deep and fierce! What I didn't know was that much the same thing was going to happen to me as well.
