On Being A Grandmother....

I haven't been a Mama and a Grandma all these years for nothing. At nine this morning I got to keep Micha while his Mom went to the dentist. We played and had fun. It came sleepy-time and we didn't want to give in. Nothing was working. No, we didn't want to lay down, no we didn't want to snuggle up with grandma, no, no, no.
So, he's sitting on my lap while we're deciding who's going to win...I start scratching him on the back of his neck. Uh-oh...we get v-e-r-y still. I scratch his little shoulders, then his back. Our eyes are l-o-o-k-i-n-g s-l-e-e-p-y... He's gone. Next thing I know he's laid over on me fast asleep. Oh, yes, I've got lots of those little tricks. Grandmas don't always win...but most of the time we do.
