In 1988 I hosted an AFS student, Doganay, from Turkey. Though there were only a few years between us (ok, more like 9) she was still technically my daughter and I her mother, according the the AFS paperwork.
Well, Doganay and her husband Ercan had a baby this year - a little boy named Selman, so that makes me, at least in the eyes of AFS, a Grandmother. (Mom, are you ready to be a great-grandma?!)
Here he is ... do you see the family resemblance?And here is a photo of Doganay & me, shortly before she returned home to Turkey.
hum.. now does that make you feel old?? You look great for a grandma...
ReplyDeleteThe scary thing is, I really AM old enough to be a grandma for real ... had I had my kids at the age my mom was when she had hers, they could easily be moving in to the world of parenthood already ...
ReplyDeletei love that photo of you.
