Aaaahhhh.
Grand-Childrens. They be the best kind.
(They go home to Mama at the end of the day.)
I love those ages! It's when they're in the 11/12-year-old age group that they become intolerable. It takes a month to train them, but after that, they will take a bullet for you.
==============
(Stuff them full of cupcakes just before they
go home. . . and let Mama scream at them.)
Ah, the infamous sugar high! Speaking of which, I hate Halloween. But it is time to give them chocolate - lots and lots of candy.
=====================
And two to five? Best ages. Old enough to get
into things and drive Grammaw crazy . . And Big
enough for Gramps to take them for a walk up to
the Rec center to burn off some energy then walk
back home and its nap time.
Oh yeah, I know the schedule! My brother goes to babysit those kids (the Olympia dude) allll the time.
I'm tellin' ya, don't you know these kids are the most brilliant and most adorable kids ever born?
Here, let me give you my brother's phone number. He'll tell you. and tell you. and tell you. omg
If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
