    Default grandson joke

    My husband had passed away and my grandson was afraid of thunder and lightening. My daughter told him that it was grandpa playing the drums. One day while he was visiting it began to rain. He asked me "Why does grandpa have to play those drums?" I replied that that was the job God gave him. To which he replied, "Great, jobs in heaven too, I want the job of petting the kittens".

    When my son was young, we were at the store and he saw an Amish woman. He looked at me and said "Mom look a Pilgrim!"

    My DH is into metal detecting..and our grandson (age 5) loves to go with. So he gets on his dads cell phone, calls papas cell phone and told papa he would like to go metal reflect (calls it reflecting) with him today. He can come pick him up right now, he is ready. Then he adds in..if your good we can even go for ice cream after. lolol So then he turns to his dad and says, papas on his way, you better be ready or your staying home.

    I have alot of grandkids so I could write a book but it take a million yrs to remember them all. This morning my 6yr old was having a bad morning getting ready for school and his mom told him to go sit on his bed until he could calm down and get ready. He told her she was being a bad mommy. A few seconds later he came up and said he wanted money for school to buy snacks. She looked at him and said now you want money, I thought I was a bad mommy, he just looked at her and said well, can I have some. Then he started sucking up to get the money. I was laughing. I love the way kids think. Last yr at Christmas this same little boy came to my house about the time my oldest son and wife left and my DGS asked "What did Uncle Bud get you for Christmas GiGi" I told him nothing. He looked at me and said "Well, that sucks" It was all I could do but laugh. I explained that I was happy that they came to visit or when my kids call and I don't need to have presents to make me happy. He just had the most dumb foundest look on his face. I love grandkids and tell my kids all the time, if I could have skipped having kids and went straight to the grandkids I would have been so happy. I can't wait until my Greatgranddaughter is old enough to be so cute.

    My 4 year old Grandson is very close to his Grandpa. Grandpa is the "go to" person who fixes everything and who's favourite saying is " I can fix anything with duct tape." Recently, my Grandson's father was rear ended so the family car went to the body shop. When his Father announced that the car was all fixed, my little man replied " Did they fix it with duct tape ?" Gotta love it !

    My 5 yr. old granddaughter who calls me "fishin' Grandma" was here for the wk. end last wk. She was trying to make conversation with me & suddenly said "I really miss "fishin' Grandpa". I didn't have the heart to remind her that she was just barely born when he passed away. Trying to keep a straight face when I heard that was tough. We do talk about him though so he'll be a part of their history.

    my oldest granddaughter would get mad at her parents and tell them" you just sit there and think about that". the same thing her parents told her whenever she was naughty.
    my oldest daughter at age 4 told me her preschool teacher wouldnt let her bring home her "girlcroak". i spent a good 15-20 minutes trying to figure what that was . She finally got exasperated trying to explain and stated" you know,it scares the birds away". ahh,the light dawns---a SCARECROW!
    same daughter used to call cigarettes "kill-kills". out of the mouths of babes comes the truth.

    Default Cute story

    My friend owns a fabric store. A lady came in with her 4 year old DGD and they were browzing the fabric. The little girl chose a fat quarter. When they go to checkout, she puts her fat quarter on
    the counter with grandmother's purchases. Grandmother asks her to tell the owner what the fat
    quarter is for. She replies in a whispery voice, "its for my stash".
