re: #308 Anymouse

My mother is a grandmother, but my son does not seem likely to have children. She will not be a great-grandmother.

When I was a teenager one of her great-grandmother was still alive (my great-great grandmother).

I have a five-generation photograph of my mother’s grandmother, her mother, her, me, and my son.

My mother and father may live to become great-grands. It is possible that Mrs. Fish’s folks will not, however; the oldest grandchildren seem to be having problems forming stable marriages. On my side of the family, my dad’s mom was a great-grandmother for a little over two years. Sadly, that’s too soon for any of my children to really remember her.
