I loved hanging out with the older ladies in my neighborhood, and had lots of "honorary grandmas." Maybe regardless of where you live in the future, you could find ways to be a community mentor? Is there a library where you could volunteer in the children's section maybe? They wouldn't necessarily have to be little girls that you are related to (although that's nice, too). We also have this Generations Child Care thing where I live, where they have daycare that's paired with elder care (responsibly), and it gives all the older adults the chance to be with little kids, and all the younger kids a chance to be with older adults (as some have no living grandparents). Hmmm, maybe there's a way to start a program like that where you are, even on a really tiny scale.
