Woe to the Grandparent


It's frightening to realize how the addition of one person can change the dynamics of a house. We have a tendency to become set in our ways and are quite unappreciative when those ways are changed. We've had a grandson at the lake with us all week and have enjoyed him, but he's interrupted our easy life. We're not used to finding soda cans in the freezer, ready to explode or endless cartoons on the TV or a gallon of milk gone in two days. The garbage set on the ground next to the dumpster has been scattered by a wandering dog and the laptop is producing games we've never heard of. Grandparents love their grandchildren but what they love even more is taking them home!
