Your statement about possibilities makes perfect sense.  And N and B sound like a couple of delightful handfuls.  How wonderful to read about them!

Beautiful Saying no and teaching them like this is an act of love. Accident prevention and sooooo sensible!

As you age the magic of youth fades.  Then you have children and you relive it again.  As they age the magic slowly disappears again.  Then you have grandchildren, by then your reaching your second childhood and the two of you can really create magic.

Wonderful post.  I love reading about children.  You indeed have a good handle on deeling with them and showing them not only love, but respect.  It is only in receiving respect from adults that they learn how to give it.

My weekly Granny duty is the weekly  highlight. Your grandchildren sound adorable. You do not sound a harridan at all.

Ah, now we know all about the little darlings. Thanks for these funny and vivid bios.

They sound so adorable and well brought up. They have some really good values inculcated in them so Kudos to you and the parents.

YOU SOUND LIKE THE IDEAL NANNY. Why did I do that? The first words typed with the CAPS locked on.  I have to pry that key off 'cuz I can't stop hitting it. Betcha you don't do that but I'm retired mechanic.LOL

So great to be back with ya here luv and as Kabu says we must get together in Montreal. We'd like that and when we come to Montreal we stay on St.Jean Blvd. at the Comfort Inn and just back down St. Jean is Moe's. We could do a nice lunch or supper there. Take care.

Do you sound like a harridan? Absolutely not.
You sound like a wonderful example and role model -- as do your children. The proof's in the pudding.

Oh, this is darling!
I'm a Bonus Grandma (two grandkids came with my husband) and am loving it. I also noticed from your profile that we have James Herriott in common. Love his writing! So nice to get acquainted over Blogit. Thank you!

I think what you are doing is right on the mark! I don't have grandchildren, yet, but I would be in line with your train of thought! Have a great day and I will answer your e-mail very soon! Trying to get outside chores done while there is daylight, what happen to the long days! UGH! sam
