Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE GRANDDAUGHTER ADDISON aka NINKY.
God bless and God speed little one.
Thank you. She finally knows what Birthday means as she has 4 brothers and they've all had a party. She's talked about hers for months thinking each time we say birthday; it is hers. Now finally today is her day. She is excited.
So beautiful. 🤗
God bless!
I looked at her when she was blowing out her candles and it seemed like she grew up over night into a little girl. I have kept her (babysat) her since she was 5 weeks old. She was really into this birthday as she knows what they are now. And she got the dollhouse she asked for. God bless.
What a blessing to watch your grandchildren grow. God loves you.
I pray to be in this situation in 15-20 years, God please forgive me for what I have done :/
I have 2 children/son and daughter. My son has 3 daughters by first wife, a son and daughter and 3 stepsons by second wife. My daughter has 2 sons, a daughter and a son to be born in January. I have a total of 12 grandchildren. My 9 year old grandson (step but he's still my grandson) has real blood grandmothers on both sides. Fathers mother has nothing to do with them and mothers mother did not raise her as her mother (grandmother) did. They do not know her as grandmother, simply by first name. When I mentioned this yesterday, as they were celebrating Grandparents day at school, my 9 year old said, "Who is Grandma Linda?" And his 10 year old brother replied, "You know, Linda." And then the 9 year old said again, "Memaw is our grandmother, not nobody else." And that was all it took for me. One day, God will bless you as well. It's a love like no other.
