All Grown Up

We celebrated Reese's birthday today. It wasn't the same without Fred, but we still made it through and had a good time. Our boy is all grown up now. It's a good thing, since he told me over birthday cake that his girlfriend, Sofia Bjergsen, is pregnant. Neither one of them work so I don't know what they'll do other than rely on good ol' Pops, of course. I wish they had waited until they were older and more settled, but it can't be changed now and truth be told, as worried as I am for the three of them, I am excited, too. I can see the benefits of being a grandpop. I sure wish Fred was here during all this too though. No doubt he'd love being a grandpa.

They're very unprepared, though. Neither of them have a real job yet (Reese is still babysitting for now while he's looking for something better) and yet they want to get a place of their own. There's no way they could do it right now. I told Reese that Sofia could move in with us. It'd be cramped in our little house, but we'd figure it out. Sofia is talking to her parents too though to see how they'd feel about Reese moving in with them. It's all just very up in the air right now and Sofia's only in the first trimester so they do have some time, but I don't think they realize how fast that time will go.
