they ganged up on me

Late this afternoon Lance went to work and Molly went to a meeting. The way I figured it I was down 6 to 1 or so. However many there were; I was out numbered. Mark was grumpy and I thought dinner would fix most of his problem. He helped put the toppings on the pizza and took plenty of food samples. When the pizza came out of the oven, he ate some of the toppings off of it and that was it. Nathan decided to wake up so I was rocking him and holding Mark. Mark was almost falling asleep but it wasn't 6:00 yet. I was keeping him awake. Molly came home at 6:15 and told me he could go to bed. Of course, then he didn't want to sleep. He was so tired that he laid on my lap and didn't move for 1/2 hr. He was awake but not by much. Poor tired little guy.

I think Nathan has figured out the g-ma thing. Not long after the parents left he started crying. He never cries. As long as I held him, he was fine.

Since Mark went to bed early, Isaac got a little mom and g-ma time alone. He sang songs to me. It was priceless.

Molly and Lance do a great job. I can buck up for a couple of days but I know I can go home to my quiet little world in a couple of days. They are in it for the long haul. I am happy to help them out for a couple of days and grateful that they will let me come and spoil the little guys. Being a grandma is such a bonus for me. I hope the boys don't give their mom and dad too bad a time after I leave.
