Weekends with her never last long enough!!!

Sunday after I showered I was putting the bandage back on my left foot..   Mamf's is in there watching me and she looks at me and says G'Ma,  are you going to be able to hold me again??  I said,  I can hold you baby,  I just can't carry you around with my fractured foot...  she thought for a second and then said oh..  then she said..  Can you hold me right now..  and of course I said yes..   I love that little one more than she will ever ever know..

I remember about a year and a half ago someone asked me how I could tell her no..  and I said.. I am her G'Ma,  I am not supposed to tell her no,  that isn't my job..  and boy does she know it..  Saturday night I put her in her bed in her room and read  Dr. Suess ~Go Dog Go~ to her,  then hugged and kissed her and turned the light out,  telling her I love her most and more to infinity and beyond..  (it's a game that she always wins)  so I come downstairs,  do a few things and then grab my laptop, kindle, phone and a drink and head back upstairs to bed to read for a bit..  I put stuff down and go into the bathroom to put my pj's on..  come out of the bathroom and there she stands with her froggy and her princess blanket,  she says..  G'Ma,  I am scared..  the monsters are going to get me,  can I sleep with you..  then she smiles and bats her little eyes at me.. (this kid knows exactly what she is doing) I say Mamf's..  you are the biggest Monster in this house,  they are all afraid of you..  so then she says..  but they are going to crawl out from under my bed and get me..  so of course I give in and tell her ok..  but she wants to sleep on top of the comforter with her blankie..   then she wants to have long drawn out conversations and I was worn out from not sleeping the night before as was she..  I don't know how she didn't fall out during the day from not sleeping..   but she is on the mend and feeling 100% better now,  which makes this G'Ma feel so much better..
