Hi,

Thanks for the understanding. Since change is the only constant I know of, I

really should get used to it. Unknowns are scary. When I know what is going to

happen and how, I'm sure I will adjust.

I am having my 6 year old grandson Jack over the 16th, their spring break

week, to stay three nights. He is fun and easy to have over. I love being

around them all, but the other two are still too young. We've even planned the

" menu " together already. In February he stayed for four days and on the third

night I gave him a few choices for dinner and he said he didn't want any of

them. I told him he could choose what he wanted as long as it included a fruit,

a vegetable, a meat, and a whole grain. He thought for a while and said he

wanted a BLT. He said the tomato is the fruit, the lettuce is the vegetable the

bacon is the meat and the whole wheat bread is the grain. He was right and we

had BLTs and laughed together. It will be very hard to leave them, but I'll do

what I have to do.

Take care,

Marti

being able to amble around (when I'm able!!). But, if I had to, I

would. Change stinks but I guess we can't get away from it!

I do know what you mean about missing your grandbabies. I nanny for a

family that the youngest is 2 and she is my baby! She and I are so

close, always giving me hugs and kisses, I could eat her up. As nice as

it is to have my weekends to myself without screaming kids, I do miss

her!!! They do bring great joy into our lives with their trusting,

loving ways.

Hope you find a workable solution, in the meantime...gobble up those

kids!!!!

Hugs,
