This is for all you grandmas and grandpas....I really loved this as I have four wonderful "babes" three girls and one boy....
Grandparents: 1. She was in the bathroom, putting on her makeup, under the watchful eyes of her young granddaughter, as she'd done many times before. After she applied her lipstick, and started to leave, the little one said, "But, Grammy, you forgot to kiss the toilet paper good-bye!" I will, probably, never put lipstick on, again, without thinking about 'kissing the toilet paper good-bye.'
2. My young grandson called the other day to wish me "Happy Birthday." He asked me how old I was, and I told him, "62." My grandson was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"
3. After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse, and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. Finally, she threw a towel around her head, and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say, with a trembling voice, "Who was THAT?"
4. A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like: "We used to skate outside on a pond .... I had a swing made from a tire, and it hung from a tree in our front yard ... We rode our ponies .... We picked wild raspberries in the woods." The little girl was wide-eyed, taking this all in. At last, she said, "I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!" 5. My grandson was visiting one day, when he asked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo, and I said, "No ...... how are we alike?'' "You're both old," he replied.
6. A little girl was diligently pounding away on her grandfather's word processor. She told him she was writing a story. "What's it about?"he asked. "I don't know," she replied. "I can't read."
7. I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her. I would point to something, and ask what color it was. She would tell me ... and, was always correct. It was fun for me, so I continued. At last, she headed for the door, saying, "Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these, yourself!" 8. When my grandson Billy and I entered our vacation cabin, we kept the lights off, until we were inside, to keep from attracting pesky insects. Still, a few fireflies followed us in. Noticing them before I did, Billy whispered, "It's no use, Grandpa. Now the mosquitoes are coming after us with flashlights."
9. When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replied, "I'm not sure." "Look in your underwear, Grandpa," he advised. "Mine says I'm 4 to 6."
10. A second grader came home from school, and said to her grandmother, "Grandma, guess what? We learned how to make babies, today." The grandmother, more than a little surprised, tried to keep her cool. "That's interesting," she said.. "How DO you make babies?" "It's simple," replied the girl. "You just change 'y' to 'i,' and add 'es'." 11. Children's Logic: "Give me a sentence about a public servant," said a teacher. The small boy wrote: "The fireman came down the ladder, pregnant." The teacher took the lad aside to correct him. "Don't you know what 'pregnant' means?" she asked. "Sure," said the young boy, confidently. "It means 'carrying a child'."
12. A grandfather was delivering his grandchildren to their home one day, when a fire truck zoomed past.. Sitting in the front seat of the fire truck was a Dalmatian dog. The children started discussing the dog's duties. "They use him to keep crowds back," said one child. "No," said another. "he's just for good luck." A third child brought the argument to a close."They use the dogs," she said, firmly, "to find the fire hydrants." 13. A 6-year-old was asked where his grandma lived. "Oh," he said, "she lives at the airport ...... and, when we want her, we just go get her.Then, when we're done having her visit, we take her back to the airport."

Heres a wee picture of my daughter with her fella Derek they are expecting their 1st baby in December this year This is one of my daughter Heather whom is expecting in this very picture although we hadn't known it at that time ,I guess that was my Birthday surprise in hiding LOL I figured you maybe want to see whom Iam talking about
Meet Heather & derek too. The happy parents to be had a huge scare last weekend[so quickly after having had the Blessing of hearing babys heartbeat at the hospital that day too] heather was confronted with a miscarriage threat,we rushed her to hospital where after 10hrs of waiting they managed to get things in perspective & help her,as it turns out my daughter has rhesus negative blood Dereks is positive & apparently after tests they have discovered that the baby is positive,this is why the threat happened to heather as her Rhesus negative bloodtype was rejecting the babys positive bloodtype insiting the threat of a misscarriage. Apparently yrs ago lots of wimmen lost their babys in these circumstances [my own mother lost 3 babys due to same reason]& some of the babys born to them had to fight for their lives & have a full blood transfusion/change.What wonderful things they can do now ,they gave Heather a special injection to stop the combatting bloodtypes from trying to arridicate each other & she will have 5 more of them throughout the rest of her pregnancy so thank God someone has developed this injection as it's what saved our unborn Grandbaby from becoming lost to misscarriage .Heather was scanned by the Gynacologist whom was called from home to attend to her & as it happens our wee baby is doing just fine,Heather had a couple of days in bedrest & wasn't allowed to work for a few days ,now all seems just fine Thanks to God!
