[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 360613, member: 1233"] Sometimes we do what we have to do. I hope that this can be a relatively pleasant time for all of you. Esp Gma who gets to spoil her grandson anytime she wants now, and both grandkids after the baby is born!!! When we lived with my parents while husband was in grad school my dad created the "Grandfather Clause". If he wanted to do something with one or more of the kids and I wasn't really for it, he would invoke the Grandfather Clause. Things like taking the kids out for ice cream after dinner so they are a few minutes late getting ready for bed, or sneaking some veggie they both didn't like off the plate and then Gpa praised the child for eating them first. NONE of us were ever fooled, and it was only on small stuff. It was kind of fun for all of us. Whatever ends up happening, it is really neat to be able to spend this time with them, esp the grands. You will end up being so close to them. [/QUOTE]
