Shauna,
This story showed how much your grandparents love you and how troublesome and unthankful children can be. It also shows a bit of sibling rivalry.
Keep writing and stay healthy

I love your family tale. Now if that was your parents taking you out, they would have said "too bad that's what you ordered." But not grandparents! I had one grandma that would have done anything for us, and usually did, and a second grandmother that was not a fun nor interesting person. So of course it was grandma one's house we spent the most time at. She would have done exactly what yours did just so you wouldn't cry. Your grandpa didn't care even if he was grumbling because if he did he would have said no. Nope he went right back because he didn't want to see you hurt. One of many great memories I'm sure you have. Good luck in the contest.

    Oh, thanks so much for this fun review! Yep, it sounds like you knew my grandparents. Grandpa was a big softie, hehe. Thanks so much for reading!

Kids . . . they are always a pain in the butt. Nothing ever suits them, and they always want what they don't have or what someone else has. But wouldn't it be a dull world without them. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

I truly enjoyed reading your story. It is warm and heartfelt. How kind of your grandparents were willing to go out of their way to make you girls happy.
Very well-written.
Best wishes,
Mary

Hello Mama Baer a good day to you. I hope this review finds you well. As a poet/writer it is always interesting to see the different takes on these contest/writing prompts. I think your take is definitely a good one, I also have a bias and soft spot for grandparents as I was raised by mine. Good job and good luck in the contest.

How darling are the two of you, and how wonderful you had grandparents like this! I lived with my paternal grandparents for three years. They were nice, and generous, however, too set with children being seen, not heard. A delightful read and memory.

Sending you my best today as always and best wishes for the upcoming contest,
Sally XOs
