Isn't the best when sweet little 9year grandie comes and puts her arms around you and says...
- Thread starter joanietoo
- Start date
Oh yes, it is the best. I will never forget we had our grandson with us
on a trip. He was about 10 and I got a cell call from our neighbor that the house sitter we had hired was not doing her job. I had dead potted plants and worst of all, my indoor kitty was spending her days outside in the hot summer heat. We were hundreds of miles from home. I came unglued and started to weep. Our little grandson came up to me, put his little arm around my shoulder and said, "don't cry grandma, lets go home and fix it!" And we did!

My 5 year old granddaughter stayed overnight on Saturday and peed in my bed...
My husband & I had a wedding to go to on Saturday. We had to be at the church by 10am. My daughter called on Friday afternoon and asked me to take Isabella overnight. Her fiance is a brewer and there was a brewfest on the Connecticut River at the canoe club and he was showcasing his beers. She said she'd pick up the baby (I still call her "baby") by 9:30am on Saturday so we could make the wedding.
Well, Isa peed. I was sleeping next to her. I awoke first because it seeped over to my side. I had to bathe her, sweat, strip the bed, wash her jammies, sweat, wash my bedding, clean the mattress, sweat, feed her, sweat (I'm menopausal). Her mother arrived, as promised, at 9:30 am and I was a sweating, pee-smelling mess.
We missed the ceremony, but I looked lovely at the reception and I drank and drank and...well, anyway...
Just to make this food-related, the Delaney House in Northampton MA is a wonderful place to stay, to have a gathering or to eat lunch or dinner and there's a golf course, too. Really good food and service.
