Always reading. Jobs were never even mentioned. Even around the house, I did nothing. Until I moved to live with mum at 16. I can tell you now, that doing nothing for all those years didn't teach me a thing. But I learned a lot once I started working and mum had me doing things around the house too. Your grandchildren are so lucky to have you guiding them.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1920860526738969165.post-55357523500508211602013-06-22T15:21:39.347-04:002013-06-22T15:21:39.347-04:00Ah, they look like total professionals!
