The greatest joy in life!

Hi everyone,

I feel so at home here because everyone—whether the CP team or the authors—is so nice,

so today I’d like to share my greatest joy with you.

I BECAME A GRANDMA AT 12:55 PM!

I’M TOTALLY OVER THE MOON!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,

Birgit

Yes, that’s wonderful news.

Congratulations! All the best to the new arrival, and I hope the mother is doing well, too.

Best wishes,
Michaela

Oh, how exciting :-) I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart and hope both mother and baby are doing well!
Just imagine—I’m sitting here grinning from ear to ear, that’s how happy this news makes me :-)

Thank you, you lovely people!

Yes, everyone is doing well, and I’m going to open a bottle of sparkling wine now—I’m still
sooooooooooooooo excited :-)

Best regards

Birgit

I’m so happy for you. It’s soooo wonderful to be a grandma! So, is it a boy or a girl?
Best, Ingrid

Dear Birgit, congratulations :-)! You can be proud of your new grandchild, but above all, your grandchild can be proud to have such a wonderful grandma. Wishing you a wonderful time together!
Lots of love,
Ilona

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It’s a boy—*Finn*—and yes, I’m so damn proud, and I’ll do everything I can
to make sure my little angel is proud of me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best regards,

Birgit

Dear Birgit,
I’m so happy for you ♥
Congratulations! Now you can be the SUPER-GRANDMA (and let the kids do all the things their parents forbid *grin*)

Dear Birgit,
Warm congratulations! I’m so happy for you, too! Being a grandma is sooo great! I’m sure your grandchild will soon say, “Grandma is the best!”
Best regards, Ruth

P.S. I guess we’ll be seeing a lot of new baby patterns soon?

Why aren’t my replies showing up???

Third try:

Congratulations, and here’s to a long, healthy, and happy life for Finn!

Congratulations <3

That’s wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!
I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart on your grandson Finn—it’s great when becoming a grandma brings such immense joy.
Wishing you a wonderful time and, above all, good health for the whole family.

Best, Petra

Wow, congratulations, and have fun spoiling the little one.
Another new “victim” you can crochet and knit from head to toe… lol

Best regards,

Oh, that’s wonderful!!! I wish you a truly wonderful time together!! Warm regards!

Congratulations and all the best.
Warmest regards 

Hi Birgit,

I’d like to warmly congratulate you, and I’m so happy for you.
The feeling is indescribable—I became a grandma for the second time exactly one week ago, and it doesn’t feel any different from the first time.
I wish your grandson all the best, and I hope you get to fully savor the joys of being a grandma!

Best regards, Inna

Congratulations! There’s probably nothing better!!
Finn is already lucky to have such a proud grandma.
I envy you.
All the best to you and your family, and a wonderful future for Finn

Dear Birgit,

I know that feeling of joy—I experienced it 1 1/2 years ago—and I’d like to offer you my heartfelt congratulations. A little angel like that is always a gift from heaven and brings so much joy to the family. Enjoy every day!

I’m sure you already have lots of ideas for what to knit and crochet for this sweet little one. :-)

It’s wonderful that you’re sharing this joy with us here.

Warm regards
Monika

Hello Birgit,  
All the very best from me too, and congratulations. Enjoy the time with your grandchild and have lots of fun knitting and crocheting things for them. :-)

Inna:
Wasn't that too early? I hope everything is okay with you too? I thought your daughter was due around the same time as me? My due date is in 2 weeks. 
All the best to you too in any case, and congratulations. 

Congratulations from me too! A new addition to the family is always something very exciting for all the relatives. But the grandmother always has a very special place.

Kind regards
Dagmar

Thank you again for all the lovely congratulations!

I also wish all moms and grandmas lots of joy and good health!

Best regards,

Birgit

Hello @Arni,

you were paying close attention :-)! Yes, the baby came three weeks before the due date, so he was a bit small (2800 g and 47 cm), but otherwise he is fully developed and enjoying life :-).
I'm really happy that everything is going according to plan for you. I wish you a wonderful rest of your pregnancy and a nice, quick, and easy birth.

Best, Inna

Congratulations to Birgit Bessler, and all the best to Finn.

@Inna,
all the best to you, your daughter, and your grandson, too.

@Josefa,
thank you so much :-).

Inna: Thank you so much.
It really is a very exciting time
:-)

@Arni
I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you. All the best to you.

Heyyy, great news!
Wishing all the happiness in the world to Finn and his family, and to you, Birgit, a wonderful time as a grandma.
The same to Inna.
It’s lovely that you’re letting
us share in your joy. Best wishes, Caro

Thanks, Caro :-)

Thank you again

@ Arni I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Best regards

Birgit

Dear Arni, I too wish you a wonderfully joyful day for the arrival of your baby, and above all, a very easy delivery.
Wow, there will be lots more crocheted and knitted things for the little ones again – how lovely!

All the best to everyone
Monika

Congratulations ;-)

I’m so happy for you!!!

Dear Arni, I also wish you all the best and lots of joy with your baby. I still remember well how worried you were at the beginning, and now everything will be fine. I’m so happy for you!

Wishing the new arrivals all the love, good health, and at least one good friend in life—and heartfelt congratulations to the parents and grandparents.

Best regards, Marlies

Thank you so, so much for your good wishes.

Iglinz: Yes, it really is amazing how quickly it all happens.

... and I still have so many ideas for things to crochet 

Dear Birgit

Congratulations to the new grandma, the happy mother, and the newborn! I remember well how excited I was eight years ago when I drove to Munich to welcome our first grandson! Two years later, history repeated itself, and in the meantime those sweet babies have grown into two inventive schoolboys.
  To you, dear Arni, I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart!

Warm regards, Christina

All the best to the baby, Mom, and you.

My youngest granddaughter is five months old now.

All the best

Gabi
