Jack the Lad

Meet my great grandson Jack aged two months.  I do not think even the grumpiest  of persons could resist returning his good morning smile.  I am, of course, prejudiced
but I am delighted with this new addition to our family - my first great grandchild.

As the generations multiply there comes the question of what one should be called.  There seem already to be a plethora of grandparents so I have decided on "Grandma Jess".  I am already Grandma to five,  Auntie Jessie to several more and Auntie May to all my late brother's family. My parents are responsible for all this confusion.  They liked dishing out names and both my brother and I have three Christian names.   Very difficult for filling in forms and fitting into all those boxes.  But not so bad as the poor chap who was named after all eleven members of his father's favourite football team!
