Grandma Rocks!





Grandma loves to do things with the kids.  She was the perfect homemaker/Mom while I was growing up and now she's doing the same thing as a Grandma for my kiddos.  My mom got a degree in Art and landscaping.  She has a great eye for these things.  She had the opportunity to go with me today to volunteer in Austin's class to paint paper maiche globes.  Mom was helping all the kids and it was wonderful.  It was so nice to have her there-Austin was so proud!


She also does fun crafts with the kids...makes homemade bread (they love beating the loaves with their hands and they get all sticky and messy with flour--so cool!) And she reads with them, draws with them, does all sorts of projects, and most of all holds them and cuddles.  She's a great cuddler.  I still love cuddling with my mom at the age of 33.  I love you Mom!

I still love to snuggle with my mom, especially when we go to the movies. You're always doing fun things with your kids so I bet they're having the time of their lives with Grandma there. I think of you often and hope all is well with your hubs being gone for so long. Take care!

I finally got caught up with your blog! I'm so glad your parents have been in town to help you out. It looks like the kids have enjoyed it! And the surprise visit from Mr. Toler- so exciting! I can't believe Austin was the MC. What a stud. :)

Aren't Grandma's just the best?? I don't know what we'd do without my mom and Kyle's mom...we're so lucky to have them both close by. Looks like you guys have been having a blast!!
