Novelists and Grandmothers

By Emilie Richards | July 25, 2018 |

This is grandparents’ week at our cottage.

Instead of writing, blogging and Facebooking, I’m indulging in Super Diaper Baby, Uno, and watching my six year old grandson ride the big yellow bus to Children’s School and then sit quietly at Chautauqua’s historical amphitheater as he takes in ballet and orchestra with a child’s enthusiasm—and longer-than-expected attention span.

I’ll be back next week when Grandson is back in Ohio with his parents, but this week, just call me delighted Grandma.

    Enjoy. They grow up way too fast. My youngest grandchild is 9 already.

    Do you know what grandchildren are? The reward for not killing your kids.

      It’s amazing how much easier grandchildren are than children, right? I can engender all kinds of bad habits knowing that someone else will have to break them later. 🙂
