My first two grandsons (cousins) came within days of each other, and then two years later, their sisters arrived, also within days of each other. Insta-nonna.<br /><br />I lived next door to one of those granddaughters for four years...and the bond is amazing. She is now almost 18 (both girls will be this month).<br /><br />Enjoy the time you are spending with her....<br /><br />And enjoy your books, too; I also loved The Nightingale and Leaving Time.
