How much do you share with grandkids or your children?

I love your description of your granddaughter greeting you. I always wondered what my grandma name would be--turns out it is just grandma, or sometimes Miriam, which of course most people call me! My granddaughter lives 20 minutes away so see her often. We have a little garden path and the first time she walked it alone she said it was "big kid drop off"--what a thrill. You seem to know and understand yourself, and who you want to share with and when you need privacy. It can take a lifetime to figure that out--thank you for sharing here.

These are my stepchildren grandchildren. In the beginning I didn't want to step on their grandmother 's domain, so I suggested Neecy because my name is Denise and children cannot pronounce that.

About 2 years ago my granddaughter came to visit me and we're eating dinner and she announces and points her finger at me and says you are my Grandma. And I responded by saying yes I am. Since then she calls me Neecy and refers to me as Grandma Neecy. I'm the only grandma who got the grandma name.
