Hey Crumm

Don't tell Al Gore this, he'll blame it on global warming.

Maxtor, I know what you mean about no kids. My wife and I are both only children, but we have two sons, one just turned 30, the other one will soon be 27. After they left home, it was very quiet, but they live in the area. The youngest one and his wife have a 2 year old daughter, so we have her on Saturdays, while he's work (deputy sheriff) and our daughter-in-law can clean house, go to beauty shop, etc. The little one really "runs us ragged", but by the middle of the week, we're already ready for her again. They have tickets for both NASCAR races at Texas Motor Speedway next month, so we'll be babysitting all weekend.

You both are very blessed to have family close by. Maybe when your grand daughter is three or four, you can take her to see a Nascar race. Ear protection would be needed for someone so young. Enjoy her while you can because you know how fast they grow up.

as for adoption, everything has its price.....

I would'nt charge much.

I'm sure my son will have her there as quick as possible. They're extremely protective of her and try to keep loud noises away from her. They were at our house one night a few weeks ago helping us put up a huge entertainment center. He was using my electric drill to put in some of the screws, and she went ballistic over the sound (and he wasn't making too much noise). Also there's a train that passes near their house, and that also bothers her even though they're nearly a half mile from the tracks. She'll accept those things better as she gets older. She's definitely a joy to have around, and just as stubborn as she can be, wanting to help do everything. Of course that part will change when she's older, just like her dad did, (also myself) when we were kids.
