"You are going to be grandparents!" What a joy to hear. Over the next months we discussed what he or she would call us. Our girls call my parents Mamaw and Papaw. They called Buck's parents Granddaddy and Nana. So what were we going to be? Buck was happy with Granddad and that has been his name from the start. I thought Grandma would go nicely with that and after Jakob was born we even had a vanity tag made for me. Jakob had other ideas. When he was learning to talk ~ somehow Grandma turned into Magra. The rest, as they say, is history. I am Magra to all the grandchildren and actually it is kinda cool cause I am the only Magra I know ~ makes me unique. Thank you Jakob.
