around here. No, “Grampa, can we go ride? Can we watch movies? Grampa what are we going to do now?”
It’s a cool gig being a grampa. But kind of hard when they go home after an extended visit.

I figure the silence would be deafening! lol Turn on the TV and the stereo and it’ll help fill the void – sorta. 🙂

yep! being a grandparent is wonderful until it is quiet! have had my little grandson since he was 3 months old every weekend. this past year has been pretty emotional! he is now 10 going on 11 and is a very popular little guy! he has lots of friends and lots of activities. so when i do get to have him for a night, i just get so excited. it has been too hot for us to camp out in the little vintage trailer. so not have an a/c unit that works but now he has “football” and i live almost an hour away so have to get up too early if he stays here. so not i go into town to watch him on a football field!
yall have given them so many memories as i have tried to with mine. that what we are here for, i believe! so you have done good! AND THEY DO RETURN NOW AND AGAIN! thanks again for sharing!

Sounds like a real sad lonesome to me. You sure are doing right by them, teaching them how to do what you do and having a lot of fun with them too. I admire it.
