Little helper..
Abby, granddaughter #2, spent the night Sunday..the first of the grand kids to do so in our new house. We had a blast. I kept her busy doing chores. We refilled the hummer feeders, fed the birds, made more homemade laundry soap, did dishes, washed and hung clothes ("this is fun!") on the line, and when her Mom, sister and brother came to visit and pick her up, we all made two blueberry pies (one for Pop Pop, one to take home) from the gallon bucket of berries (from our one bush) I had frozen. My grand kids know when they spend the night we have quality/learning and hands on time..I don't feel required to whisk them off to the mall to shop, or take them to the playground so they have something to do, or let them sit idly in front of the TV or computer for hours..no, no. We do, and we talk, and we have fun while doing. I'm looking forward to many more fun memories and sleep-overs with them here in the new house :)
