The Game of Slide

I'll bet you never thought of this one.....Maren and Liv did.

When Grandma Babysits

G-ma made a trip to Washington last week to play with Maren, Olivia and Layne, while Tara took a well-deserved cruise to the Caribbean. We had the best of times. While I was there Layne learned many new ways to entertain, two of which were, "Patty-cake" and "So Big". Maren and Olivia demonstrated their own creation of a game named, "Slide". Using their mattresses as the "slide", many tricks were performed on the way down. Grandchildren are definitely the reward for having children. It is interesting how in our eyes they can do no wrong, and in their eyes we can do no wrong. That is a far cry from parenting, and the best of both worlds.
