Their previous step-grandma (passed away), it seems, did not want anything to do with them, thus keeping their grandfather to herself and away from them.

I do not want his grandchildren or their parents to believe that I will do the same.




Any suggestions?

They are all under the age of 16 so looking for something short and sweet.



thank you!

Congratulations! First off-stop thinking of yourself or referring to yourself as a step grandmother-many many families have more than 2 grandmothers, and its no big deal. Be low key but warm and friendly and you'll blend in.
