Per my granddaughter, my name is officially 'Pops.' Not Pop. It's plural, for I am many. Now, the naming of grandparents is a difficult matter. It isn't just one of your holiday games. Obviously, since it took her this long to settle on a preferred name. All the other grandparents had claimed their title, but I was patient. I floated 'O Mighty One', but it didn't stick. So Pops it is. I like it. It has pep. And I'll never grow tired of hearing them say 'Pops'. Though other grandchildren down the way will be able to choose their own names for me, I do request the names be the same per family.

Because nothing lifts the day more than smiling and happy grandchildren.
She's right, you are a "Pops". Very fitting.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the best title you'll ever receive. May many more mouths come to shout for "Pops" in the days ahead.
That's the truth. Having kids is a blessing, but having grandkids goes to another dimension of it!
DeleteLove it!!! Also, I’m pretty sure grandkid picks are never gratuitous 😄
ReplyDelete*Pics...sorry, I hit "publish" before I double checked my autocorrects!
DeleteHe, good think you corrected it. I almost had a witty comeback in line. Though the gratuitous is reminder to me not to end up posting a thousand pictures week!
