Tending the Grandkids!!!!



I have been such a slacker on blogging!!!! I will try and catch up a little. The biggest event in January was that I was able to tend Lyns & Barts kids for 8 days, while they went to Hawaii for their 10th anniversary. It was a lot of work but a lot of fun. I gained a new appreciation for Lyns and what she goes through everyday. Their house is always in order and the kids look beautiful as does Lyns. I found myself hanging by my fingernails and barely having a minute to think about what needed to be done next!!!! Paige looked at me about the 5th or 6th day and said "Grandma why do always have your hair like that? (which was up in a clip) I just smiled and said that it was the only way that I had time to do it...... how does Lyndsey get anything done???? Again I can't say enough how much I enjoyed it and how many good memories we shared, Dawson even liked me better than his Mom when she first got home. It kind of made Lyndsey feel bad, but I reminded her that by the next time he saw me he would want his Mom more than me again, and really he is a much more friendly little man since he spent a little time away from his Mom and Dad!!! I have to add that I wouldn't have survived this whole experience if I hadn't had help from Corrie and Mark. It took at least TWO of us to do what Lyndsey does pretty well by herself each day!!!
