RE: Pausing for a Minute to Give Thanks! Happy Thanksgiving

I wonder if sometimes she thinks we're idiots for not understanding everything

Well my oldest turns 13 in a few days and there is no doubt she has always thought this...lol. Don't think it goes away until they are on their own and dealing with life.

Well, to a degree, yes it does. It depends, though. We've been bouncing back and forth from being virtually useless if not actually roadblocks, to being somewhat useful if not ingenious with our boys, and interestingly enough, their wives. Everyone is still under 30, though, so I'm going to give it a few more years, and see where we're at before I just give up and go into full-blown grandpa mode where I usurp and plunder and undermine by winning all the grandkids to my side with bribes and candy. :)

Oh the power of a Grandparent and their bribes....not even fair.
