Look, I'm not here for it to "make sense".
Lol, I just couldn't help doing the math because I have a toddler and a grandmother close to the same ages.
That's kind of weird, isn't it? What kind of screwed up family tree is required for that to happen? Your great grandparents must be in exceptional health.
Haha, this took me a second.
Average Crusader Kings game material right there.
It took me too long to realize that MY grandmother is 98 and my youngest child would fit in this scenario.... and my kids are the great-grandchildren and she their great-grandmother. 🤦 My kids haven't been toddlers in several years now, but they actually love spending time with her when we visit.
Damn 98!
We should all be so lucky! It's great that your kids have gotten this much time with her.
I'm glad so too. I can only hope to live as long as she has and to be surrounded by so much love.
It's possible. My mom was 46 when I was born and if she'd been born to her mother at the same age, this could have almost been me. But grandma passed at 88 yrs old, so not quite.
