Blessings

I saw a plaque at my grandkids other grandparents house that said,
"Some of my greatest blessings call me grandma".

This is exactly how I feel. It is great to have grandkids. They are all so special and unique. It is a joy to watch them grow up and to be a part of their lives.
We just traveled out west to see our new twin grandchildren, Braxton and Kylee. They are so tiny and so sweet.

One of the best perks about being a grandparent is that we get to hold them, play with them, and then leave and have a good nights sleep. And when they are not being so sweet - we can give them back to Mom and Dad, who are stuck with them.

Hubby says that grandkids are parents reward for having children. So true!

We have been greatly rewarded and are very blessed!

Hubby discovers Facebook

He has friends!

(Ok so, so most of them are under the age of 35. What's your point!)

He has friends!!!!!

The Curious Case of Carol M.

I was born, I was a child, and then I became a teenager

Description of me as a teenager –
Had wild mood swings
Was Overly Emotional
Broke out in tears at any given moment
Was quick to blow up at people
Questioned everyone and everything
Had a desire to run away and just have fun
Was self centered
Was concerned about how my body looked
Was obsessed with ____ (this is a family blog)
Stayed up late
Tried to figure out who I wanted to be and what I believed.

Finally I became a responsible adult, parent, worker.
I raised my own teenagers. I survived! (Mostly)
They become responsible adults (I think)
Life is good! I can travel, enjoy Hubby, and be content!

Hey... I think life is just one big cycle!

Wait a minute. What do I have to look forward to if life is a cycle?

Just Sharing

Grandson: "Grandma if you don't want your orange roll I will eat it for you!"

Grandpa: "Let Grandma eat, you already had an orange roll."

Grandson: "I am just being nice!"

Grandma: "You are huh! How's that?"

Grandson: "I've learned my lesson."

Grandma: "What lesson is that?"

Grandson: "To share - I was just sharing! That's nice right?"

Makes sense to me!
