Like the fishing, I also think it's important to have some family memories. When in FL, we always go to the beach which has lots of educational opportunities. Both the kids love to play in the pool too. When in NC, we're always doing something outside (at Thanksgiving, E learned how to shoot C's 22 pistol). I want my dad to show E the old stagecoach trail and water spring in their backwoods at Christmas (assuming the weather's nice). And during the summer, they go fishing. These are all the things that we (C and I ) grew up with and want our children to experience with the grandparents. While they're making memories, they're also learning which is good. BTW---I was wondering why E started getting emails from Grams. Guess she's trying to get E to work on his writing. His responses are short and sweet at the moment. He'd much prefer to talk on the phone! LOLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
