Aww…thank you. Warriors is a good word for us. Internet says meaning is “A warrior is a person experienced in or engaged in warfare, battle, or combat, often characterized by courage, strength, and specialized skills”. It takes courage and strength and sometimes special skills we learn in order to help our kids. Have a great weekend!

New here! Introduction
I’m 55. Not old but not young. My littles are 6,5 and 3. It’s been rough. have had them 4 years now..baby since born., 2 years ago had open heart surgery. been kind of crazy roller coaster. Love these kids and work to keep life stable. Blessed we could do it but it’s hard work. Overwhelm is reality of my life. Seeking balance and trying to carve out time for myself. We adopted ours. Bio Dad doing well now. Bio Mom died. Drugs were the problem. Kids adjusting. We are too. We have a good life, just different than most grandparents. Much love here in our home and glad of it.

Day Three: The Arc of Transformation The path of caregiving carries both ache and resilience. These stages are not linear. You may move back and forth between them, sometimes holding more than one at once. Shock or Disruption: This is not the life I expected. Grief and Loss: I ache for the lost relationship with my child. I am seeking, listening, waiting, crying. Resistance: I feel anger, confusion, or reluctance. I do not want this path. Adjustment: I begin to form new rhythms, though the weight is still heavy. Growth: I notice strength I did not know I had and I can show up for my grandchild. Legacy: I am shaping something lasting for my grandchild, even though grief may remain part of me. Prompt: Which of these speaks to me most clearly today? How does it show up in my thoughts, my body, or my spirit?

A little bit of each but mostly the thoughts come up that i’m stronger than i thought and am showing up best i can for the kids. then it’s the man things now what i thought i would be doing at 55. But i’ve reconciled that but it does pop up every once in awhile.

Day Two: My Grandparenting Role Grandparenting as caregiver is not just about tasks; it shapes identity. Prompts: - What has been the hardest part of this week as a grandparent? - What has brought an unexpected moment of joy? - How has this role changed the way I see myself?

What has been the hardest part of this week as a grandparent? • wanting to give all three individual attention and time and not being able to What has brought an unexpected moment of joy? • The kids dancing and being silly in the living room just because. It gave me joy because they feel safe here with us to do that. How has this role changed the way I see myself? • It has helped refine myself and helped me to slow down and no be so reactive. As an older person I’ve had to regulate myself before regulating the kids if that makes sense.
