[QUOTE="scent of cedar, post: 76711, member: 1721"] GG, nineteen is still very young. Our daughter is 34, now. I say it is a whole different thing, with a daughter. It feels like they want you to leave them alone but expect you to be ready to leap in (like Superman or someone!) and know exactly what to do WHETHER YOU HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE DETAILS OR NOT! HA! I love interacting with my daughter and grandchildren. Remember when Coookie always used to talk about sitting on her lips? I always try to remember to keep myself quiet, too. Smile and nod. That is what Mom's and grandmas are supposed to do. Smile and nod and always hug everyone. [img]:smile:[/img] I know one grandma who keeps a big, glass jar of brightly wrapped candies in her bedroom. When all her children come home with all the grandchildren? The grandma and the grandchildren lay around on her bed and eat candy and talk. Now, how cool is that! And when one of them has a special problem to discuss? The grandma pulls out the Godiva chocolate. I always swear I am going to do that, too. I don't have the willpower to leave the candy alone until the kids get here, though. (The grandma I am talking about is quite heavy ~ probably related to all that talking she does over candy with her grandchildren!) Barbara [/QUOTE]
