I cry when I think that my two grand daughters will not grow up in an America enjoying the same freedoms I did. And the Republican leadership are all in bed with the New World Order fascist/socialists.

One of the best experiences life has to offer!

Grandchildren are just like your first children but without the dramas, tensions, and complications! They're your reward for enduring all that your children put you through--but you worry about them just like you did your first crop of children. It's never over!

But there's nothing better!

Congrats from an envious 63 year old who has yet to become a grandma. Enjoy! That little guy Hamish (love that name) will keep you young.

Five grandkids at 53 isn't bad either. I got to teach 3 of them the Greek Alphabet this summer when they stayed over here.

Grandkids are great.

... a handsome little boy they’ve named, Hamish. Badass name, eh?

Badass indeed. Great choice. Welcome to the FR Grandfather Subcommittee. We’re in charge here so we expect frequent posts and comments from you at least when you’re not babysitting.

Congratulations on the new grandson.

FWIW, it's Doug Giles, the article author who has the new grandson.

How blessed you are! What a wonderful name, Hamish.

We still remember the service that Hannah did to the nation on Acorn. May all her family live a long, prosperous life.

52 isn’t close to being old.

Live it up baby! You ain’t getting off this rock alive anyway...

Few have. Most of them had to fight for it.

I ain’t crying, dammit. I’m fixing to have nine grandkids, and I’m only fifty. My wife plans a minimum of thirty—I figure she’s conservative that way. Anyhow, all these young ones are going to make a difference, or die trying.

God,family and country aren’t dead yet! His Word shall endure forever:

Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,

The fruit of the womb is a reward.

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, So are the children of one’s youth.

Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;

They shall not be ashamed,
But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.

Still works for me...
