End Of A Crazy Wonderful Week

Well we survived. At least I think we did. We’ve spent the last week with the grandkids and to quote their father, “these two will run you into the ground.” 

We met some ground. That’s for sure. But it was a delightful time that I wouldn’t trade for any other as bonds get stronger, laughs got louder, and they keep figuring out all my grandpa tricks.

A week of grandkidding is coming to an end. I may not recover until a week from now, but it’s been a blast. #Grandkids

Rare Moments of Stillness

My two grandkids are usually in constant motion, so it’s rare when I have a camera ready when they aren’t. 

Somehow I’m more anxious when they’re still and thinking.

It’s been quite a week so far, and it is no way close to over.

I love this from my daughter. Miss 8 granddaughter & her bestie gathered native flowers from besties garden & made bouquets for their Mums. Then they also made more bouquets & put them in old baskets & sold them for $10 each to the neighbours. After which these little entrepreneurs shared the money with their siblings & ended up with over $20 each. Below is a sample of what they did - I’m impressed. Generous as well as money makers 😁. #Flowers #Grandkids #BuddingMoguls 🤣.

Home Again

Whew. We’re back home after a week helping out with the grandkids. Good times. Good fun. Crazy exhausted. 

Catching them for extended periods about a month in between each tour of grandparent duty, it’s astounding to see how fast they grow. Most of my grandpa tricks don’t work any more. So, I’ll have to pull out a few new ones for the next visit.

Backseat drivers are always a trip. That said, hysterical last few mornings when taking the grandson to pre-school and he keeps saying "this isn't the way Daddy goes" and he keeps telling the GPS that it's wrong #grandkids
