Hanging Out with Mawmaw

I absolutely love spending time with my grandchildren.  Let's face it, some days you just need a good dose of huge love in small packages and believe me, it's well worth it.  Especially if you've had a bad day or just need a little touch of freshness.

One of my favorite things is when they first come in and they are so excited to see you.  Oh wait, at least for that split second because then they realize that they have full reign over the house and well, you just don't exist anymore. After all, they know what they can get by with, which in most cases at grandma's, is A LOT!!    Come on, we all know that's true, they melt our hearts and we just let them go.

My oldest grandson seems to think that hanging out with mawmaw means full total control of her cell phone.  I made the mistake of letting him watch cartoons on it while we were dining out one evening and that's all she wrote.  Since mawmaw doesn't have cable, he knows that a day with me means, phone.   Which for me means, no phone and good luck calling and getting through. I really don't mind, it's almost a needed break away from it anyway.

I wouldn't trade my time for one single minute. I can't think of a better way to brighten my day when I need it the most.  Those little hugs are the best and if it means giving up a phone for a few hours then so be it.
