Good morning to all. I finally get a Sunday off work, and we're waiting 4 our daughter to get ready so we can go to church. We don't take our 10 year old son who has AS; he says at home with my wife's mom who we take care of. This was a stressful week with our son at his new school. We are looking forward to a much better week coming up. God bless.

Hi guys. Sorry for the absence. I'm still around, just over worked and way under paid. As for the grandparents on this end. The wife's father has passed and her mother refused to accept a calculator when she was still working. Says she can do the math quicker "without those things", and honestly probably can. As for my parents, well, Pops is on dial-up and does good to get connected and Mom won't touch a computer. All of them are very supportive in their own way though. Maybe one day I'll get Pops on here. As for the others, well, doubt it. Take care guys.

Papa john this is one hell of a lonely site LOL. Its like one of those nuclear war films, when it all settles and you are sending out messages for survivors !!!

Well Rob....Looks like it's you and me against the world. Hard to believe that with 130 members in this site now, that I'm the only Grandfather???? The odds say there should be 260 grandfathers....They can't all be dead could they?
To all you dads out there...great job!! ...We need the grandparents involved because they are twice as many as you the parents, and God I know what you're dealing with. Everyone has a computer now and is on line..So what's Up?

OK men, lets start out with a roll call. I'll start. Just list wether you are a Grandfather of a Father. I want to see how many grandfathers there are here, and then what we can do to increase their number.
