My daughter called this morning and woke me up, what a louse
She said, "Paxton thought I forgot to take him to your house!
He was crying and saying how now he has to go to school
and he said that was just not cool
I told him it was a long weekend and he would get his turn today
as Logan was only meant to stay Friday and a part of Saturday"
I was feeling bad as we could have taken both at the same time.
We didn't want to hear them whine
as what we do with one isn't always the same for the other.
they get individual time with the grandparents
and that is the best, just like when they get that with the parents
as they have so many sisters and brother
They come from a family with the olders, the middles and the littles
Middles and littles sometimes work but not with vittles
They all go for DQ, and movies, just not the same thing or same one
It's a 7 dollar meal for the middles
and a kids meal for the littles
with both coming with an ice cream sundae
doesn't matter the day
The littles would want the big red dog
And the middles would want ghost busters or a scary story of a critter that looks like a big old frog
They all like to ride the 4 wheelers, the go cart and snowmobile and have learned where to keep their legs
they take rides on the motorcycle when they reach the pegs
Fun times with the middles and the littles and memories of the olders
We like to have those memories and make new ones as we become much older with sore shoulders.
There was a picture posted on Facebook this morning of the latest greatgrand
and man does he look like his grandpa John, except he has more hair
but his mother, an artist drew him with a banana and a tail, like his grandpa John, is that fair?
to make that baby grand
look exactly like his grandpa John
No, I don't think so, and I will tell her so then baby and I will yawn
and get some rest as hanging with the best
can make you tired
and you know, I am retired!
