Popular Post ChrisL Posted August 18, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted August 18, 2022 Daughter texted me just now saying she’s not feeling well (doesn’t appear to be Covid) and if I could take CJ for a bit so she can rest. Heck ya, let me at him!!! I get about 3 hours with CJ (noon to 3 PM). I’m definitely thinking a trip to the park/playground is in order. Maybe grab some grub to nibble on at the park. WOChrisL is working but might want some time with him too. Can’t wait! 5 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Zephyr Posted August 18, 2022 Popular Post Share #3 Posted August 18, 2022 It is nice to have the little ones without their parents. I have had a few good days recently with my little guy. One day when they were here, and a couple days at their place when both parents got called in to work.

Nice to have THEIR kids without YOUR kids Well when you put it that way it doesn’t sound as great! 😂. What we have seen is CJ behaves one way with just me and another when mom is around. I think that was the point or at least how I took it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are great - in bit size time bits. I imagine grandkids are the same - nice to have the good times with but fewer of the "parent" stuff. You guys had that "fun" already anyway. Now is bonus time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a different kind of love that is hard to explain. We love our kids but the grandkids are a whole different level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My daughter & I switched cars and she has a remote to our garage for her car so it was a short walk in. We had water time after a late lunch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were feeding the ducks he kept picking up the dried goose shit thinking it was bread (it dries brown & does resemble chunks of bread). I didn’t report that part to mom! Yeah mud pies! 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
