On becoming Granny at 40, part 1

Some how after a lifetime of no patience to finish projects, I managed to not only teach myself how to crochet, but to actually finish several projects this Winter.  I am amazed still.  They were small projects, baby beanie hats, baby slippers, baby sweaters- small and easy to actually finish before getting bored- but a major accomplishment for me. 
Why, after all these years, do I suddenly have the ability to pick up a hobby and actually do something with it?  Maybe because although I am only 40 and half of my kids are under the age of four, I am going to be a Grandma soon.  Maybe I am just too tired to stay up cleaning any more and if I am actually doing something with my hands, people tend to let me (or more like I let me)- sit.
