For Grammie!

A Letter to my Grammie

Dear Grammie,

I've just had the best nighty night time 

with Nana and Grandpa...

We discovered that it is a lot more fun

when Mommie and Daddy go out on dates

and leave me here alone with them!

It has been a busy, busy day!

Mommie and Daddy talked at church this morning 

and after church we went to the deli again.

I hope you have some fun plans for Sundays after church,

because they go to the deli 

every stinkin Sunday,

and I'm getting kind of bored with it.

Today, to entertain myself

while all the grownups visited,

I practiced flopping my head back

in kind of a lounging position,

and looking at things upside down.

Tonight, Mommie and Daddy went to a concert

with Kimberly and Kevin

and left me home with the Grands.

Grandpa fed me my supper while

Nana fiddled with the Christmas lights.

Then we played on the floor for a long time.

I banged my head on the end table,

so I let Nana snuggle with me for a long time,

then we played some more.

Oops , let me check my lipstick..

Then Grandpa let me climb 

up and down the stairs 

while Nana fiddled with the Christmas lights.

While I was downstairs,

I pulled an entire series of children's history books

off the shelves.

Twice.

Then Nana put me in my jammies and 

I let Grandpa snuggle with me for a long time.

He wanted to hold me while a drifted off to sleep,

but Nana wouldn't let him do it...

She thinks things have to be done just like Mommie and Daddy do it.

Pooh.

I wanted to sleep on Grandpa's lap.

But she put me to bed and I went right to sleep.

I am sleeping right now.

I want to tell you now

that you need to plan as many of these "dates" 

for Mommie and Daddy

as you possible can

because it is a lot more fun when they are not here.

more lipstick.

I am not whiney and fussy

when they go on dates,

and I love to snuggle. 

They do not need to know this...

let's just keep it to ourselves, ok?

Can you please just figure out some fun places for them to go 

without me,

so I can hang out with you and PawPaw?

I forgot to tell you that today

I also learned to pitch my head

from side to side in time to music

and am working on shaking my bootie at the same time.

This is something we can work on together

while Mommie and Daddy are gone out together.

See you soon... zzzzzzz

Nighty Night!
