My mom is a GREAT grandmom. Seriously. I loved my own grandma’s but our relationship was VERY different than my mom’s with my children. (That is in no way a complaint – just an observation).

Memom ended up on the kitchen floor with the girls at one point. They all worked to get their toes to touch and then rolled the ball too and from each other. Such a simple game but super fun.

Two peas in a pod – both playing games on computers and giving silly grins.

Last year Little came home with a bag full of valentines and three of the kids gave her the same thing. Now, I am trying to come to grips with the fact that it’s about what the kids like – not what mommy thinks is cute (in this instance), but since my kids don’t give a rip for now. . . I’m in charge of the valentines and we MADE them!

Now, before anyone thinks I am oh so smart and creative, let me be clear: I got the idea from someone else. I don’t even know her name but she writes the blog Sweet Brown Sugars. (You can click the name of her blog to see the post I got this idea from.) KB takes hers to class today so we’ll see how it goes. They are simple, but I think they are cute – just enough, really.
