Can Gamma Come Get Us?



Well....the Grandbabies Were at the Other Grandparents house (Crystal's EX's, Dad and his wife). This morning, I get a phone call from Crystal asking if I would meet the EX's Dad and pick the kids up(she's still out of town)...Seemed Sami wasn't feeling well...as she had also said, Thursday when they were told they would be staying there this weekend. They were suppose to stay through Monday morning and then the granparents would take them to day care....Crystal gets Another text message from Sami saying, "Could Gamma pick us up?"......I do Not believe in forcing kids to stay somewhere or do something they don't Want to...I told Crys, "When and where shall we meet?"........They get here...I feed them lunch...all the while, they're acting normal as clams on a beach...I've looked for signs of illness...everywhere...nothing. Smiling, laughing, picking on each other, Sam taking a shower, Will watching Extradordinary League of Gentlemen...Ah well...the kids Forced me to eat a bowl of Big Red ice cream...(dish up some vanilla ice cream, pour Big Red over it)...LOL...Even though I have issues with Forcing someone to do something...it had to be overlooked....just this once. Happy Day ya'll!

Hi Donna, don't know what Big Red is, but it must be pretty delicious ;if you eat it with ice cream.

I don't see a single sign of illness in those two. I reckon Gramma fixed them right up, didn't she? They love you and that's just right.

I just wanted to say thank you for your kind comments to me, first when I was away at the meeting, and today about the strawberries.
Yes, we had wonderful days on the mountain. We really was on the mountain in more than one meaning.
God was there, and therefore it was good to be there.

Your grandchildren above looks very
happy. They are lucky who has you.
