@donnadjm: My husband and I are raising our grandson. It was not planned. We are retired. We have temporary guardianship and will be going back to court on May 2nd for permanent custody. Our grandson is 29 months old and we have had him for the last 18 months. What is it they say?? “We make plans and God laughs.”#grandparentsraisinggrandchildren #newkindofretirment #grandparentsoftiktok #retiredwithkids #grandparentsthatareparents #retiredwithkids #grandparentsthatareparents #whereareyourparents

Same! My husband and I got placement of your 2 grandsons 3 years ago when they were 1 and 2. They are both special needs. We adopted them in January. You never know what life is going to throw at you.
