2 daughters, 3 grandchildren, one great-grandson -- all in Kansas, where AI resided for 17 years. I now live in Florida.

I have three adult daughters, all in stable relationships. The youngest made me a grandmother for Christmas and my oldest will give me a second grandchild in May. I introduced the baby to cherries a few weeks ago.

Why did I even check to see if they were sliced? I'm in an Agnostic group - we aren't dumb people (in general!). lol

@RavenCT LOL!! Yes, I sliced them. But the Mama Bear instincts don't go away, EVER so I totally understand.

Four kids. Two with me half the time. One grown but living with me and I expect him to move in with his girlfriend any time. And one lives elsewhere with her boyfriend.

If I said "Is his name Heathcliff?" would you get the joke? Look back at what talk to text did to you! 😉

Ha! @RavenCT I fixed that once!

I have 19 y.o. twins, and they live with their mother.

Daughter 33 son 31 semi official foster son 22 (raised him since he was 8 ) they are all at home from time to time, they are based here but travel a lot, 22 other kids who have lived with me for various periods of time from months to years, they are mostly here at xmas some bring partners and their kids, 2 nieces and a nephew. No grand kids.

wow.

You did some serious fostering and kept ties! Good for you.

That is great. I am really happy for you. Christmas must be a lot of fun!

@RavenCT lots of broken homes in my area, I was a single dad, and lots of my kids friends were having a hard time. You would be amazed at how these kids spoil me these days, I am. Always have a few bottles of the very best spirits here, not that I drink often, but its the thoughts that count.

@Rugglesby Ah your house was "The good house!". Obviously. Glad they spoil you - you earned it and they know enough to be grateful for it!

@BlueWave define fun. Sometimes it is, the kids begin arriving about a month before, from all over the world, I start hoarding food months before. They ALL stay here for weeks, yet most leave xmas morning and go visit family, then come back in the afternoon. Xmas day is the quietest day here usually on 8-10 including myself. This year on boxing day was a rushed drive, 14 hours, 900 klms to collect my foster sons brother from a country hospital and get him home. I got home and 3 weeks worth of food had been totally demolished. I had been cooking for days, and didn't even get to sample some of it. I had made a 2 foot high pavlova among other things.

They're delicious with a little rosemary and olive oil. Seriously, I love them but don't have any.

My little nephew was fascinated by Asian Acrobatic Troupes, which were all the rage on television at the time. He was having a rather rowdy day, and I told him we were going to ship him off to China to be used as a juggling ball. We were in the front yard at the time, and one of the teen sons of a family who owned a mom and pop Chinese restaurant in our town walked up to give us one of the flyers he was leaving at everyone's doors. I guess nephew thought the kid was there to pick him up and reacted accordingly.

In Vegas I live with the youngest one. He is the best dancer in the family now. My son is my hero and role model and I am not afraid to say it out loud. Former Air Force. My 2 daughters: one been musician, had recorded bands, the other used to manage industrial metal band and now is dabbing in music and singing in church... yep church. She also did a tv show in Jacksonville "Latino in the City" where I supplied music for the show. Looking forward to see her singing in church. They both have day jobs... one is a chef, other property manager. My son is a network engineer with Cesar's Enterprises besides being a featured dancer with "Sin City Salseros". All Credit goes to their Mother. I did a good job in marrying her. Nobody is married, no grandchildren. Where ever I go... Vegas or Jax... they want me around. Music and Dance... yep, they are my kids and my life. I can't see Life without them and yet I know I always be alive in them after I am gone.

Nieces and nephews, some grown with kids of their own.
New grand-niece due in a couple of months.
I mind my eldest nephew's youngest two, 9, and 5. daily. They are the "small humans" of whom I often speak . His oldest will be here during the summer. She'll be 13 by the time I get my arms around her again. She's already 6 feel tall. She's stunning. At my former apartment complex, when we were at the pool, I was constantly running the boys off. I remember yelling at some older boys, "Don't even look at her, she's 11!!!!"
The little one is going to be an even bigger handful than she already is.
I've started small conversations with her about the difference between fearlessness and recklessness. You can only do so much with a 5 year old.
They're all awesome people. From the tallest to the smallest.

One genius of a 14 yr old HS freshman. Split custody. To my knowledge that is all.
