having breakfast with my grandson this morning

There is nothing like the grandchildren. Wife and I had more time with our oldest who is graduating from college this spring than the others but they are all loved beyond measure. Oldest favorite thing was “Popa I have an idea what we can do”, those memories never fade.
 
Babysat last weekend for my 2 youngest grandson's, the younger one is 14 month's old, the older one is three. My son and daughter in law went to CA. for a get away. On Friday I made them pancakes with butter and syrup with bacon on the side. On Saturday I made them scrambled eggs with bacon with buttered rye toast, they gobbled it all up! I have 4 grandchildren, a set of 10 year old boy/girl twins and the younger set of boy's. I have so much fun with them that I am retiring early so I can spend more time with them.
 
We mostly grew up on the syrup my mother made. Basically sugar boiled in water with imatation maple flavor and margarine. I don't know the exact recipe and it's too late to ask Mom.
 
I am envious of those who are lucky enough to have their grands nearby.

My three grands live in Atlanta. Lucky if we get to see them once a year.

mine too... I got a couple precious years before their parents moved them away.. now they are growing up far too fast, and much too far away.
