Hi ED2,
Little "A" is sooooooo beautiful! I understand your situation; I've been there. I have an Italian grand baby. She's the love of my life. But she lives in Italy. I don't see her very often. All these ladies give such excellent advice, I have nothing to add. I don't know which is harder: Being a mom or being a grandma. Both are the hardest jobs in the world. Hang in and hang on.
Prayers and blessings...
