Grandkid game night, and we celebrated the individual grandkid….
We put up a poster with their names and 3 things about each kid that we like about them. We talked about everyone’s talents, and made lots of fun 15-second type videos- Strike a Pose, and Eye of the Tiger. We walked to the park– Wayne drove in the car– and played around. We got 23 cars to honk their horns at us, and every time we cheered like we had just won the lottery!
The grands from 19 down to 4 get along so well– and have such grace for each other. I put a mirror inside of a box and told the kids that in the box was something most precious to me. It was awesome and I cherished it and was so happy to have it.. Then, one at a time, they walked up and opened the box to see what was inside– and they saw their reflection. I told them they couldn’t say what they saw until everyone had a turn. Their little smiles and excitement was really sweet. The most precious thing to their meema is them!
Papa Wayne got out his ice cream machine, and we ate our weight in ice cream cones. We sat around and I asked them questions about favorites and what they want to be when they get bigger, and what their favorite body part, etc. For the record Alfie’s is his lungs and Poppy said appendix.
