I live in the US and have two sons ages 20 and 25. My youngest son is with the US Army Sniper Patrol and is currently stationed in IRAQ. I became a "Meme" for the first time this summer (2006) when both my daughter-in-laws gave birth within 3 weeks of each other. I was gifted with two beautiful grandsons named Aden and Shae.
