Snuggles & Sleepovers


There is just something about having my grandkids over for a sleepover that puts the world right once more!  They make me smile!  They make my heart happy! I become a kid again, running around the yard playing Tag or Hide & Seek with them.  Watching them jump on the trampoline laughing makes me want to get up there and jump with them.  (Which I can't!)  We make forts out of blankets, we sing, we dance, we laugh and be silly! I love every minute of it! Finally, when they are all worn out we snuggle up on the couch with a cozy blanket and a bowl of popcorn and watch movies together. What fun we have on nights like this!

I love being with each and every one of my ten grandkids.  Now, grant it, the older ones don't want to play Hide & Seek anymore or snuggle up with "Grammy" on the couch - but it's still so fun hanging out with them and having that special time together whatever we do!

 I cherish each and every sleepover I get to have with these precious children and teenagers!  I know all too soon they will grow up and the sleepovers will end.  Humm . . . maybe someday I will  just have to do this with my great-grandchildren!  Oh my!  I will really be old then!

I love my grandkids!   ~ Cathy (a.k.a. "Grammy")
