A Tale of Two Kids
A quick introduction for those stray non-family members that might find this blog. I'm a working mom with two kids, Jordan who is five and Kaitlyn (aka Katie) who is three. My children are the only set of grandchildren for three sets of grandparents and also have four dotting uncles. Can we say spoiled!! Despite my best efforts, the kids have actually turned out to be great kids and an endless source of amusement.

Grandkids
If you ever think you are doing fine, feeling great...think you know lots, have your grandkids over. Today I spent the day with Jordan. He is so sweet and thoughtful (kind of.) You see he was thoughtful enough to spend his money on buying gifts for almost everyone. I took him to three Dollar Stores and he proceeded to buy gifts for most of the family. When he did not buy me something I asked "Are you going to buy Grandma something?" He answered, "No, you are too greedy." Brat!!!!! He gets that from his Mom, I tell you. The other family member that did not get a gift was his Uncle Ian because as Jordan says, "He has too much?" He even bought his uncles girlfriends gifts. I guess he had to seeing as he asked both of them to marry him.
After dinner tonight we decided to draw a dinosaur landscape...trees, lakes, a volcano. When I said we need to draw something coming from the volcano he looked at me like I'm an idiot and said "LAVA??" I momentarily forgot the word...geez, I am almost 49. I took him for a walk with the dogs and he comments on what a "nice and peaceful" day it is. This kid makes me laugh. He is so smart - he is actually scary. His mom just called to say he was sick on his way home. Great. I'm sure it wasn't the chocolate he ate or the frozen yogurt bar. My luck is he caught what his sister had. Which is just great because being the wonderful grandma I am, I
finished eating the frozen yogurt bar that he couldn't. If it is a flu bug...I'll be..............lets say "losing weight" in the near future. I'm off.. I think I'll change my handle from Joanne to Greedy Grandma!

    I just wanted to point out, both kids had their big pukes either at Grandma Jo (aka Joanne)'s house or just after leaving her house. I think it must be something she's doing :-)

    As to her comment about them getting their cheekiness from me... where do you think I got it from.
