Even though Jim Carrey feels a bit young to be a grandpa, he’s head over heels for his grandson, Jackson.

”[I] love being granddaddy, granddaddy Jim. It’s very odd, it’s not something I expected at this age to be,”

He gushed:

“I just get a lot of joy, a lot of joy from that little boy… he’s just magical,” Jim continued. It’s the greatest feeling in the world and as you get older…your connection to these things gets so intense…you just go, ‘Without this, I die.’”

The actor is out promoting his film “I Love You Phillip Morris“, co-starring Ewan McGregor. He joked about his on-screen romance with Ewan:

“I always left Ewan satisfied for sure. I’m a romantic guy… I understand what turns a man on… I think I’m just an attentive human being and I’m an open heart. My feelings run deep.”

I wonder how crazy Jim will go at Christmas time, especially since it’s Jackson’s first Christmas? I’m sure it will be a blast!
