I love that my children love their grandparents. I do not like the children they become after the grandparents have packed their bags and fled half a continent away.
They’ve had gobs of candy, not enough sleep, and enough unconditional attention to turn the sweetest child rotten.
Schedules, healthy meals, naps, and rules.
Today we return to normal.
Pray for me. I’ll need it.

Grandparents show the parents that there is another side to their children.
(If you were a small child, would you hug an old,ugly and wrinkled grandparent unless they bribed ya?) As we watch them grow and put the parents through the things that our own children put us through, we smile with pride, that you all turned out as well as you did. We survived children and spoiling grandparents, and so will you. SMILE
I wasn’t complaining about the attention they receive, I know they love and deserve it. I was only whining a little about the fallout, which was surprisingly light, yesterday. We only had a few more tantrums than normal.
