Today is Friday, January 22nd, 2010; Karen's Korner #1745
Nothing evokes responses from Karen's Korner readers like real-life thoughts about kids, especially grandchildren. And yesterday's Karen's Korner about our four-year-old granddaugher Molly was no exception.
Most responses were ones of thanks or how much readers enjoyed it.
I had two which related their own thoughts:
Vicky Boyington said, ".My most precious Christmas gift this year was a hanging cloth plaque from daughter Terri that says 'If you don’t believe in angels; then you don’t know my mother.' The older we get the sweeter the words of our loved ones.'
Val Neubauer related a granddaughter story as well: "Loren and I also have a 4 1/2 year old granddaughter," she said. "Aren't they precious! "
Their favorite story about Shea was after she had been to Sunday school at their church. "She had heard the story of Adam and Eve," Val said. "It really bothered her that they had to leave the garden, and she hated the fact that the snake had to be punished too. We had to enact the story several times. Sometimes she would play the role of God, and she would forgive the snake and let it remain in the garden."
Accoriding to Val, her funniest memory was when she and Shea were playing with the Barbie dolls later. "She handed me a naked Barbie and Ken," Val siad. "They were mine to play with. I told her that I needed to dress them. She replied, 'No, Grandma, they don't need clothes. They're Adam and Eve.'"
Cute!
Have a good weekend....
