I see clearly that you and your husband have this grandparenting role down to a science. These camping pictures are so beautiful. Your grandchildren are just so adorable. I smiled through each picture, especially the seagulls attacking your food. I have had that happen too. It all sounds like a lot of fun.

Of course they can pray and collect some moneys, but I always hope that when I hear of children concerned about such things that they will be reassured that God knows and all will be well in the end. A lot of elementary kids are starting to be anxious and depressed due to school curriculums that focus on climate and global tragedies, so I worry for them a bit.<br /><br />PS: Smelly sea treasure can be frozen for sharing at home, then buried far,far from home.Thoughts on Life and Millinery.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15826496514403918108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-4413599171340415802010-09-07T11:30:30.265-07:002010-09-07T11:30:30.265-07:00Looks like so much fun.

They were quite pesky with us, too, but we were practically sitting on our picnic table so we didn't have the same results.<br /><br />Love to see your grands enjoying themselves with you. They are so darling.<br /><br />Ranen has a beautiful, caring heart. God love her!<br /><br />I jokingly asked my daughter what planet she was on when Sam said, "Earth, of course." That made us laugh as I had no idea he knew such things, but I doubt that he'd heard about the devastation in Pakistan.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
