Sally Field talks about being a grandmother

Brothers & Sisters actress Sally Field, 60, whom many of you might remember as the mother of Forrest Gump, and of, course, as Gidget, talked to Parade Magazine about being a grandmother. "They like Granny a lot. And they love sleepovers." Sally’s youngest son Samuel goes to NYU. "That’s a dream of mine. Never having gone to college, I’d love to get a degree." Field also has two other sons Peter and Eli, 34.

I must be getting old. I can remember Sally Field way back when she played Gidget.

Peter is a writer and I believe his daughters are Isabelle and Sophie. I think that Isabelle is about 8 years old and Sophie is younger. Eli supposedly just recently had a son last year?

@Kresta, me too, I use to love that show. Starts singing the them song “Just wait til you see my Gidget, you’ll want her for you valentine” lol And I’m younger than her sons.

Wow. I had no idea that Sally Field is 60 years old – She looks sooo good for her age! And I’m surprised that she’s a grandma too! I think a lot of grandkids love seeing their grandmas – One of my cousins said to my grandma recently “I want to come over for a sleepover. But not just for one night, Forever and forever!” lol.
