Grand-Kids..... don't you just love them?

Hey everyone,

I've been so blessed with 4 wonderful grand-children, 2 here in UK, the other 2 (twins) are back in South Africa.

Few months ago I offered my daughter to look after the kids for her if she wanted to go back to work.... she thought about it and we decided to give it a 6 months try.... well needless to say, she's enjoying the extra cash but also the adult interraction.

Having had the kids now for over 6 months, I must say it's been a lot of fun.... but also a lot of work. Many of my friends and family say "don't know how you do it... I couldn't", well I have enjoyed it, but I am glad that it's about to end too.

Joshua, who's now 3 needs the interraction with other children and the advantages of following and listening and learning. Paige who's now 11 months (and already walking since 10 months old) is getting into everything and of course following her brother into all sorts of mischievious adventures.

She now also will enjoy the interraction of other children her age and will benefit a lot from it I'm sure. I won't lie ... I will miss them, but I'll be glad to get my freedom back too... now I can be a proper Granny.... bless!

Joshua enjoys trying my patience, although he's gotten a lot better since knowing that he'll soon be starting "school". Paige loves to pinch and she's also quite cute at teasing when she wants to touch something she's not allowed to... looks at you as if to "dare" you and then dives straight in there... cuuuute!!!

Anyhow, I'm sure that the last couple of weeks I'll have the pleasure of doing a few more telling offs and punishing (naughty corner has been used quite a bit in the past few months)....

Once I am free again, I may just have to go back to a job of some sort, unless my Internet business really takes off properly... but time will tell. The product we are about to launch is almost complete now and we should be able to market it quite intensively from next week on....

Keep you eyes peeled for my next post, you'll soon find out.

Chat tomorrow, or whenever!
