On my Fridays off I sometimes look after my grand-daughter. It's just her and I pretty much the whole day. We get along pretty good, I think. She's a wonderful and bright young lady for being all of 28 months old...just over the two year mark. I do lots of craft-ey type of stuff with her and she likes to make a bit of a mess, but that's why we do the crafts...she learns all kinds of things including how soap works after all is said and done.
Today, my first hour with Molly was anxiety ridden, you see Molly has a new addition to their loving family, a puppy. She's a cute little nugget this little mutt. But what do I remember about training puppies, never mind trying to keep track of a two year old as well....the first hour was a little frantic on my part. But, as soon as I realized that "Daisy" would do her "business" if I put her outside....well, the frenzied frantic feelings went away. Relief....for all included, I suppose. We got into a routine, no problem.
Molly and I painted, did some stuff with play dough, stamped till she couldn't "stamp" anymore, watch FROSTY the snowman....and the final craft thing of the day was making snow globes...she loved it....so easy but what a treat!! Molly loves snowglobes....so this whole craft was right up her alley. We made three, one leaked....but she took two funtastic snowglobes home...and if they break..no problem everything is non-toxic and easy to clean up! WE had a great day Molly, Daisy and I.....yep.
Tonight is quiet night on the home front. ahhhh..
