It's the Little Things

As I said previously, with summer vacation I have grandkids that escape to my house. My granddaughter decided that she wanted to play dress up and I told she could play with whatever she liked in the drawers with dress up stuff, but I wasn't going to get the things out of the closet yet. In the drawers she found a plastic box of beads for making jewelry and decided that this is what she wanted to do, I just needed to find her some string or something. I grabbed a shiny pink shoe lace that was handy and she was content with that for a while. But it was too short for what she needed so off I went to find where I put the nylon fishing line. Once that was found she sat content in the living room making jewelry. After a while she came into the kitchen and said that she had made me a necklace, but she was short of lettered beads so it only has "GM" on it.
That's GM for GrandMa. She's such a sweety.

Hi! What a fantastic gift! I bet its worth more than all the gold in Fort Knox. Perhaps one day when we have grandkids, I'll be lucky enough to get something that special.

Take Care,
Peter

When she sat down to make jewelry I hadn't expected her to make ME a necklace. I have it hanging from my little stuffed skunk that sits on top of my monitor so it hangs down over the edge. A safe place where I can enjoy and not have to worry about it getting broke.

I have a feeling that YOUR grandchildren will be terribly spoiled. : ) (That's spoiled in a GOOD way)
