Hi, I’m Genevieve a proud grandmother raising my grandson full-time. Our journey began unexpectedly, with challenges I never imagined—like discovering my grandson was born exposed to methamphetamines during the COVID hospital restrictions. But through every obstacle, love and determination have been my guiding lights. This blog is my way of sharing our story, offering support, and connecting with other grandparents and guardians navigating the same path. Here, you’ll find honest stories, practical advice, and hope for anyone raising a child under extraordinary circumstances. Welcome to our community — you’re not alone.

What does my ideal home look like?

My Dream Home

When I think about my ideal home, it’s not about how big it is or how fancy it looks it’s about the life that happens inside it. I picture a home where my grandson can grow up, run around freely, and always feel safe and loved. A place filled with the smell of good food cooking, where family gathers in the backyard for barbecues, laughter, and stories that will be remembered for years.

I imagine a space where friends are always welcome, where there’s enough room for people to sit, talk, and just enjoy being together. A home with warmth in every corner not just from the sunlight, but from the love we pour into it.

Most of all, I want a place where my grandson will always know he has roots, where he can look back and say, “That’s where I grew up, and that’s where I was surrounded by love.”

That, to me, is the perfect home. Not the walls or the furniture, but the memories made, the laughter shared, and the love that grows stronger each day.
