More fun than a barrel of monkeys....

Mary Bailey — Sat, 22 Aug 2015 04:17:49 GMT

we watched our 4 1/2 year old grandson tonight.

He and I were discussing the fun we had tonight...hide and seek, racing and digging in the garden.

He said Grandma did we have fun? (spelling "fun" in scabble tiles)

I said, "Yes, it was more fun than a barrel of monkeys"

It cracked him up! everything was then "a barrel of monkeys"

I'm also the grandma that said "whoops-a-daisy" also a big hit!

That's so cute!!! Our grandson just turned 3, and is at the point when you can carry on a conversation with him...which is a lot of fun.

We hadn't seen him in two weeks. Usually we see him, and his baby sister, a couple of times a week. When he got here, he ran and gave me a big hug and said "I missed you guys." And, he looked like he teared up.

Grandbabies are THE BEST!!!

Being a Grandparent is a true blessing!

You think you can't love anyone as much as your kids. Then you have Grands. You fall in love all over again.

I always tell my husband that I love them so much that it feels like my heart is going to explode!
