From the Young to the Old

Sawyer tends to play shy when he talks to Grandma, so he has to talk tough.  At 1st he said he was too busy to talk with her.

Jeremiah(14 months younger than Sawyer) on the other hand is full of hugs and kisses for her.  Whenever he comes to our house, he 1st heads for Papaw then it’s off to say Hi to Grandma Barbara, and he loves to give her a drink.  When he saw Wil was taking his picture, he almost couldn’t finish his hug because he had to get back to seeing the picture.

These two more than pay back Matt, for all the grief he gave me a toddlerSmileI have said it before and I’ll say it again.  It’s been so HUGE to have them live so close during Grandma’s stay with us.  Matt has has to come home from work at least 3 times to help with Mom.  He has done things that he never thought he’d do.  The little boys make Mom come to life.  Brennan sometimes just enjoys sitting and listening to the conversations when Mom has company, even when they talk Dutch.  Sometimes if they laugh, he comes and asks me what was said.  Mom enjoys watching Isaiah get off the bus and she always tells her guests that Isaiah is more shy.  Whenever Isaiah is over here, she is very aware of his moods.

When I took care of my leaves, I kept a pile out for the boys to play in.  It was a few days later before they had their fun.  By then the leaves were dry and they had them all mulched in no time at all.  I think they all needed baths.

Last evening when Sawyer was playing upstairs, he came running out on the loft and excitedly told his Daddy, he was talking to Grandma Vi on the phone and she said he could come over to their house!

You said it well. Esp. liked the sentence that said Matt has done things he never thought he'd do:)

ha! Sawyer's such a stinker -- nice try, buddy! that's so sweet that B likes to sit and listen, and of course it's adorable the way J loves to give Grandma hugs! I don't think he was doing that much yet when I was there -- but the water thing was already in full swing!
