My
First Grandchild
It was a girl, weighing
8 lb 15 ozs. Her name is Maisie. We were very thrilled to hear about it by e-mail.
We went to see our daughter and her baby in Windsor on 11th May and stayed in
a hotel for 2 nights.
We went to her flat, pressed the bell and my son-in-law opened
the door. He looked pleased to see us and invited us in. We hugged each other
and talked lots. Caroline said,"Oh, come and see the baby". She opened
the door then we saw the baby. I said, "Ooooh, she is beautiful". Maisie
fell aslept in the cot then we left the room.
A few hours later Caroline put the baby into my arms, was very
thrilled to hold the baby. We saw her face and it looks like her father's face.
Her eyes were so blue. She also had pale pink on her cheeks,a small rosebud mouth
and dark hair. My husband Harold said that, her cheeks were like her mother's
likeness.
Chris brought his parents to see the baby on Saturday. It was
good to see them. I think that it was the first time that they had seen the baby
too.
Later on we went out to shop in town in Windsor without Caroline,Chris
and Maisie because she was not fit to go out and Chris was looking after them.
We enjoyed shopping in Windsor and we had an evening meal in
an Italian restaurant. We ate spaghetti with bolognese sauce. We came back home
to Edinburgh, on Sunday morning. It took us 8 hours and we were tired. I hope
that we can see Maisie again soon.
