Cupcakes, Cookies and Growing Up

She was my first grand-angel.  
I tell her she'll always be special to me.


 Every couple of Fridays, it's her turn to spend the night.


She'll ask her Mommy, "Is it Friday yet?"


She still jumps up into my lap and asks me
 to sing to her or tell her a story.  

Friday was her last day of pre-k and next year will be kindergarten.  I get teary eyed when I think of how she's growing and I just want to hold her in my arms and 
keep her this little forever!




Dear Diary,  The Cupcake doesn't share cookies with me like she used to...  ever since the nag mom convinced her that too many cookies would be bad for me. She's such a rule follower.  Lucky for me she doesn't always wipe her mouth after she eats.  This dog will get cookies one way or another.  Gracie.

  2. When Samson heard it was about cookies and cupcakes, he had me read this to him. First though, your granddaughter is so adorable. Makes me wish I had one of my own.
    Samson Says: Join the club, Gracie. Since I had my stomach illness, I'm not allowed ANY people food. AT ALL! Life is a bore, isn't it? But that's a good trick you got there, just don't forget that your mom reads your DIARY, so now she'll know. And I bet the kid will wipe her mouth from now on! XOXO, Your Samson

  6. Hi Bobbi and Gracie, It amazes me how quickly grandkids grow up. Our oldest is 11 yrs old now-where did the years go?! Your granddaughter is so adorable-you've got lots of time left. Gracie you are so darn adorable but you need to keep your girlish figure. Have a great week you two.
    Hugs, Noreen

  8. That Gracie is a very good-natured dog to be so close to the angel's face. It's mutual love.
    I LOVE the view from the hiking pictures.
