Getting off the ramp to come home I saw a man hunched over the hood of his car [...]

My Grandma is an amazing woman. Some memories of when I was younger are still so wonderful.
~ When my mom and dad went on infrequent business trips together, grandma would come over with her red suitcase and baby sit us. There were four of us girls although I never remember my oldest sister there. I [...]

We got up, ate, visited with daddy and headed for grandmas about 9. She was up so we greeted her and started giving her her drinks to get something into her. Soon after we got there the doctor, who mom really likes, came in and pulled mom out of the room. I [...]

So I got this email from my dad a week and a half ago…

I just love them. Yes, I pay more than if I went to Walmart but it supports the scchool, right? Anyway, once Jeff scans them in and posts them here you won’t believe your eyes. My guys are growing like weeds!! Thanks, Jeff, for posting them.

Mom is busy with grandma this year so she sent money for me to buy the boys Christmas gifts this year. I had fun shopping and between both sets of grandparents, the boys are going to be having fun with all their toys. They are so “into” batman, star wars and Ben 10 [...]

Why is it when I think I am doing my boys a favor they always expect more and more and more. Do they not understand I am giving extra in the first place?
Tonight Jeff had class. Evan also had a tiger scout meeting. Since half of Evan’s den consists of friends they all play with, [...]
