Where's that darn mailman?

                                           

It is going on 3:pm and no mailman yet. I swear they come whenever they feel like it just to make me mad. And for the past few month's we have had at least 15 different mailmen.

Well, I did something that will do some good this morning. Today was pick up day for the needy, for clothes, shoes, linens, curtains, so I went through things that no longer fit Rebecca anymore, placed them in a bag and set them on porch with the tag they left on my door. I watched as the truck pulled over and came up on the porch and got the bag I left. So, somewhere in this city a little girl or girls will be able to wear some nice things. It gave me a real good feeling to do that.

I had my grandson Daniel for a few hours yesterday. It was so nice having him here. Most of the time here he was in my arms, and I didn't mind it at all. I got lots of hugs and kisses and smiles. He ate all his lunch for me, which was great. Emma sent over one of those entree's in a container of veggie beef stew. He fussed some, but eventually gave up and let me feed it to him and he finished it all. He was a little cranky, because the day before he had gotten 3 shots. He pointed to the bandaids on his leg saying this mommom this. He wouldn't let his mommy remove the bandaids, but he let his mommom do it for him.

Well, amazingly Rebecca is being good today. She did make a confetti mess of torn up paper, but she cleaned it up. Then this morning she wanted to get dressed so she went to her dresser and pulled the drawer and started screaming. I thought my god she fell and got hurt. I run into bedroom and there she is holding the drawer, she pulled it out too far and it was falling, with her trying to hold onto it. She was hystericaly screaming and crying, saying I'm sorry mommy, I broke it. I quick grabbed it put it back in and told her see it's all fixed, but she still needed mommy to hug her and tell her it was ok she didn't break anything.

Well, I'm going to go for now. I will be back later. Have a great day all.

  2. Your Rebecca is going through such a funny stage right now.  I wonder what she thinks on any given day.  She's having mood swings and is temporamental and still manages to be a sweetheart.  I love my grandkids very much too.  There's nothing they can't charm out of me.
