We all survived another day. These silly boys wanted to talk to mom and dad on the computer this morning so I skyped them. When it started ringing, Mark came running saying mama. It's crazy the technology that a one yr old knows.
Steph was off playing with her friend this afternoon and Mike was tired and needed a nap so I took both boys to cub scouts with me. We were playing in the gym so I thought the boys would enjoy running around and playing. Mark started crying when we got out of the car and he saw other people. (Why is it that Mark is so brave when it comes to climbing on things and jumping off things and Isaac is so afraid but Mark is afraid of strangers and Isaac has always been a little social butterfly.) So I had to stand and hold Mark for most of den meeting. Isaac was playing with one of the boys and having a great time. As we were leaving the church and walking to get the car, then Mark decides that he wants to play instead of getting in the car. I can't wait until he turns 2.
Isaac knows all about Grandma's garden. He really likes the peas.
Oh and did I mention that the MOM and DAD came to see us tonight. 2 little boys were very excited. And it was a whole hour until Isaac was in BIG trouble with mom. I had to remind Isaac that we have to be good now the big bad wolf is here.
Isaac and Mark were finishing dinner when mom and dad came. Isaac was saying something and we were trying to guess what he was saying. Then we realized he said it's Thursday. He was told that mom and dad would come on Thur. We were impressed.
I really have had a good time with the boys. I have been very busy, but nap time is wonderful. I can't believe that I never napped when my kids were little. I think age is beginning to catch up with me. I do know that I am getting OAO. Old and Ornery.

I am AOAO (almost old and ornery) then! Glad you survived! Hope you have a BIG, LONG nap today! Hopefully you'll recover! :-)
Thanks Marilyn for the play by play of your time with the boys. I laughed out loud more than you can imagine. I can only say...WOW... what a Grandma. No wonder Molly and Lance call on you. I'm sorry Molly corrected you. She forgets we still do things the old fashioned way. Bribery, distraction, desperation and plain ol' flying by the sit of our pants.
Thanks for the pictures and the dialogue. Get some rest.
