Hello Joyce and all, We have not closed on our house here yet, but we are having a great time with our grandson.

Yes, you are very fortunate for the close relationship you have always had with your granddaughters.  Moving was a hard decision for us because it meant leaving my Mom and sister and brother.  
But my son and his family had no family near them since his wife 
is from Canada.   I feel sure we made the right choice.

Soon I will be getting a guide dog.  Another big change in my life.  smile

Carol

It is good to here you Grandma talking about the little guy.  We were  all wondering how you were doing.

I wish my little guy was closer to me.  I guess I am lucky as I have  the Princesses near.

Hello  All, We just moved to Florida on Monday and it has been raining almost  everyday, so there has been a lot of talk about rain.  My two year  old grandson, Kingston, came home from day care  with a cute umbrella  craft  so I thought I would share the idea with  you.

Materials; one lightweight paper plate
paints, markers or  crayons
pipe cleaners

Directions; Have the child decorate the  underside of the plate with either paint, markers or crayons.  This  will become the top of the umbrella.  Punch a hole in the center of  the plate.  poke a pipe cleaner through the hole and bend it around a  few times so it will not go back through the hole.  Attach another  pipe cleaner on the opposite side of the hole and bend it a few times so it will stay in place.  Bend the bottom of the last pipe cleaner into a j shape to form the handle of the umbrella shaft.
Note,  If you have the really long pipe cleaners, you can use only
1 and twist it  on either side of the hole in the plate.

This is a  simple craft  but very appropriate at certain times of the year.  Kingston, who is  just learning to talk is now saying, more rain, more  rain.
