Peek A Boo

so you would think that her 73 year old GREAT-grandmother would want nothing more than to hold her great-grand-daughter and play with her. after all..73 is very young to be a GGmother. or so mine keeps telling EVERYONE who will listen. form the clerk at CVS, to every waiter, waitress, and hostess around, to every associate at Chico's, as well as random people on the street. but no...she's just content to sit back and watch me do all the work while she gets to brag all about her. its odd really...if she ever does hold her...it's because i ask her to for a minute while i get her things together as we're ready to leave whatever restaurant we've just had lunch in. she's never changed a diaper, an outfit, she's NEVER actually played with her. she only chants the following to her...

gaamie loves you
loves you
loves you
gammie loves you
loves you
loves you

over and over and over again.

its like she can't think of anything better to say to her. and boobah just looks at her and her crypt keeper appearance as if to say "what in the world are you talkin about lady?"

it's quite a sight.

so i've determined that she loves her...but more importantly to her is that she loves the IDEA of her rather than having to actually take care of her.

now that im 32 i finally understand why my mother and aunt were so FKD up!!
