Grandchildren

How children perceive their Grandparents...

1. She was in the bathroom, putting on her makeup, under the watchful eyes of her young granddaughter, as she'd done many times before.

After she applied her lipstick and started to leave, the little one said, "But Grandma, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!"

I will probably never put lipstick on again without thinking about kissing the toilet paper good-bye.

2. My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, 80.

My grandson was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"

3. After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin.

Finally, she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings.

As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say with a trembling voice, "Who was THAT?"

'Did you start at 1', too funny. Funny to look at things through the kids eyes. Hope you have a great weekend.

My parents said that being a grandparent was so much fun...they should have done that first:-)

I sometimes wonder if I started at 1 as well. In fact it has reached the stage where I have stopped counting...

The secret to slow aging is to start your age at negative 30.

I had the privilege of commanding the absolute love from my grandparents from my father's side for many years. I always felt nobody is capable of giving their kind of love! Lovable! Have bwahahaha Sunday!
