I hope not to be a grandma because I am not planning to have kids. And if I don't have kids, then I can't have grandchildren. Which also makes this blog post kind of awkward because it's titled, "My life as a grandma."
But I do have a brother, and I know he wants kids. And he wants my grandma to have great-grandchildren, so he is definitely on a mission. That would make me a great aunt, which is almost the same as a grandma. If I went 50 years into the future and imagined my life as a great aunt, I think I would be a happy camper. I would have a husband, and obviously nieces and nephews. I'm not sure how many, but hopefully not too many (but that is out of my hands). I would have a career as a volcanologist. Or maybe not. It could be something totally different. Nonetheless, whatever it will be, it will be a successful career. And I would still have some involvement with horses on some level. My husband would have a successful career, too.
I would be one of the best great aunts you could ask for. I would take my nieces and nephews out for a day or two to give my brother and his wife a break. I would like my nickname to be Aunty Yes, because I will always say yes to them.
Seeing as I don't want kids, it would be good for me to have a good relationship with them, because if I get old and sick, I am going to need someone to take care of me.
