It appears that no
matter how old my grandchildren are…they still ask to come over and sleep at my
house.
I don’t know if it has
anything to do with the cookies.
I have or the special
treats that they like.
Or that I take them out
to a someplace special.
Or buy them a few
things that they want.
Maybe it is having
dinner out or a pizza and wings delivered to the house.
Or maybe it is all the games that we play.
Or maybe it’s all of
the above.
One thing that I know
for certain is that the next morning, I have to make pancakes with colored
sprinkles added on top of them. That is always their request. I add red or
green or blue sprinkles, or if it is a special occasion, I add seasonal ones
like patriotic sprinkles, stars, or green Christmas tree, or fall leaves. Whatever
the occasion is, I have sprinkles for that.
A few days ago my
15-year-old grandson came to spend the night. He gave me the line, “I’m going
on vacation in a few days and I want to spend the night at your house and say
goodbye.”
I laughed and said, “That was very clever and
very smooth. Okay, come over whenever.”
The next morning, I got
up early and made my pancakes and added my patriotic sprinkles to them. The
pancakes were warming in the oven and now all I needed was my grandson out of
bed to eat them.
Sometimes it is nice to
know that you special to your grandchildren.
