This week I had plenty of good intentions!
I watched my Nanner Puddin & Little Muffin(aka; my granddaughters) so my daughter could go to work. Anyone who knows me is aware that I rarely volunteer to babysit. I feel that I have been a mother for all of my life. I was a very young mother. I still have three boys at home between the ages of 5 & 15 and I work full-time. Any alone time that I acquire is sacred.
My daughter (Pumpkin Pie) is a CNA for a home~health company and has a varied work schedule. She had picked up the care of a new patient this week and needed "spur~of~ the~moment" child care. I have to admit it was great to spend time with the girls. The difference in the relationship dynamic between a parent/child and a grandparent/grandchild is interesting to me. There is a degree of freedom as a grandparent that I have never allowed myself as a parent. There is almost a sense that as a "Nina" I have to spoil them rotten!
Ok, This is not exactly a Thoughtful Thursday post. I do have a few cool things in the works that I will post in the future.
Everyone go over to the Freeman's blog and show them some love. Participate in ~Thoughtful Thursdays~! As one blogger said, "Pray it forward!"
