Jack Attack

Hi Y'all,

I won't be around much until Sunday. My grandson Jack 6 is having his spring

break from school and is staying with me right now until Sunday. He's in bed now

so I'm taking a minute to post a little and check in.

Have a great rest of the week. I'm sick with a bad cold that has progressed to

a sinus infection, but I always feel better when Jack is around. When I'm

feeling bad we watch movies, so I have a lot of kid movies. We did color

explosion and played a few games and watched a movie today (Arthur and the

Invisibles and it was good), add a few meals and snacks and the day was gone.

Hopefully tomorrow I will be up to going outside for him to play. It will be a

beautiful day here. He has a bike and a scooter here. We also play baseball (he

does all the running) which we both love and soccer (with a net) and basketball.

I will try to get outside with him and do more watching than participating.

Maybe we will have a backyard picnic.

TTFN,

Marti

Oh Marti,

I hope you enjoy your boy! My kids loved " Arthur and the Invisibles "

(I probably fell asleep...lol). Take care of the sinus infection so

it doesn't get worse!!!!

Hi ,

Thank you so much! I did have a wonderful time and am paying for it now. But

will do it again as soon as school is out. I really do think the schools should

have built in Nana days

(I actually figured out for once how to cut and paste just what I wanted and

not everything)

You're a dear,

Marti

Marti, I'm so glad you had so much fun with Jack!! I have to admit that i'm

really jealous of your daughter. My mom died when my twins were 2. She was

soooo excited to finally be a grandma! She loved the twins so much, and it was

fun to see them together. It really hurts that she is not here for them. It

really, really hurts. She was only 59!! She should of had years and years left

with us! She unexpectedly dropped dead in front of my twins and me. Your

daughter is so lucky to have you! You sound like a great grandma! I bet Jack

is absoulutely crazy about you!!!!!!!! Your daughter is crazy to let you move

away. Too bad you can't live with us and adopt my twins! I feel like calling

your daughter and setting her staight!!

Jill

BTW....Jack attack is too cute!

Jill, You surely do carry a lot on your shoulders. What a tragedy to lose your

mother so young and in such a way. I am more sorry than I can express in words.

I wish I could hug you as tightly as you can stand and just hold you and your

twins. I wish I could be their Nana too. I have enough love to go around and

around.

Tell me about your twins. How old are they now? Are they girls, boys or one

of each? I know they must be hard for you to take care of even though you love

them so much. I don't know what I would do if I had to take care of kids all

the time.

Do your twins have illnesses? You said one time that your med bill includes

the meds for your kids.

Jack and I do have a special bond. When he sees me he still comes running

yelling " Nana, Nana, Nana " and jumps into my arms. I can't bear to get him to

stop so I just hold him for a minute. Everything goes back into place soon.

I have been taking care of him since he was born. When my daughter went back

to work I took him to her so she could nurse him, so he never had a bottle.

They couldn't afford daycare and of course didn't want to do that anyway while

he was a baby, if they could get away with it. And I loved it. I was feeling

better then and hadn't come down with Sarcoidosis, which has really changed my

life.

When Brady was born she was in a funk with me and even though she wanted me to

take care of him decided that I was mean and so I wasn't as available or at her

beck and call so much. (She has issues.) She got over that, but it was a year

before I started spending quality time with Brady. I don't love him any less of

course, but he isn't as attached to me as Jack is.

Jack, of course, loves to come over here partly because he gets all of the

attention and doesn't have to share it with Brady and Aidan.

I wish you could deal with my daughter too! Although you'd have to be having

a really good day. She's a real toughie sometimes.

If you lived closer you could be my daughter too. I took in another one when

she was 13 and have room in my heart for you too.

Thank you so much for the sweet letter, I sort of like Jack Attack too. It's

kind of what its like when he's here.

Take care of yourself sweetie,

Marti
