They took it off me when I applied for citizenship

Where the heck is he?
Maybe his wife has found him on mingles2

Maybe he just wants us to share, kind of rude not to share back

Grandmothers, That's Who!

Grandmothers who are teachers and preachers, they spoil and teach and discipline all at the same time some hard lessons in life.

A teacher after a long day at school, might not even like your child but has to be nice to them regardless. Most parents have no idea what it is like in a classroom filled with 12 to 38kids. Unless you live it every day for 10months you have no clue. To be a teacher's pet is the smartest way for you always get A+. But to be on her Blackboard your going to get F's at the end of the day!

A parent can do so much more, they can take the children to Disneyland or give them a hug birthday, they can take them Holloween hunting and get candy for free or to see the Easter bunny and get candy and eggs for free. Off to the 4th of July party to see the stars come alive and eat hamburgers and chips. Yes! a parent spoils the child the most!

But the grandmother knows just what the child really wants and get's it for them, they give them money and cookies, they buy them clothes and Christmas and birthday gifts. Grandmothers are Number ONE on this LIST!

But it is only Santa that the kids wait for each year trying to be the best behavior they can be and 3 weeks before they clean the house and wash their faces. So Santa can bring them a Year of Dreaming of Suprise. The thought is greater then the gift but if the child is let down and does not get the gift they wanted then it is back to grandmother for she will make it happen.

Then End.

That was funny!

I am a Mother who was a Teacher, in a school, then in are home.
I became a Grandmother and then a Preacher to have my own
Daughter ask me this? "Please, mother will you homeschool your grandchild as you homeschooled us, kids".

So a Mother, a Teacher, A grandmother, a Preacher Can Be the Best Spoilers of all times all wrapped up into one!
