  • Grandma Showers?

    A friend of mine was invited to a Grandma Shower, which is apparently a baby shower thrown for a first-time grandma. Is this really a thing?

        No clue. I did some quick google research and it seems like the mommy crowd is not impressed.

              I don't even know how I would react to getting that invitation! There's no way I would go!

                I mean, it's sweet if a expectant grandmother's closest friends want to take her to lunch, celebrate the right of passage, or even get a little something for her or the baby but sending invitations to a wider circle of friends seems uncouth.

                    That's a new one. I hope it doesn't catch on.
