My granddaughter spent the night last night......

She is 7 years old. Closer to 12, or so she thinks. As Mothers day is just around the corner we decided to craft. We made a picture frame for her mom using foam, foam cut outs, scrapbboking supplies, a glue stick and this years school picture. It really turned out good. She did really well with the placement of the designs and the coordinating of the colors. It was so much fun we decided to do the same for fathers day on another visit. She is really getting big. She has a barbie laptop and a Leap Pad she has gotten over past christmases. She brought both with her as the Leap Pad was not working so she decided grandpa could fix it and would not let daddy even try. Well grandpa fixed it, just needed new batteries. LOL! I was so shocked as to how well she is doing with the numbers games. She is really starting to enjoy learning. I am so glad we invested in these learning tools for her. She may be getting older but she still enjoys a good bubble bath with toys. I still check in on her and she is starting to be more modest, which is good. She was making santa beards on her face and I grabbed my digital. Scared her to death. No bad pictures grandma, be careful. Well it worked out great and I've got two closeups of a bright and shiny face covered with bubbles. (She was so relieved when I got that camera out of there. I was pleased to know she knows good and bad when it comes to nudity and pictures.) Well, of course, just like any kid she decided to make all kind of cute and strange faces through the shower door after the camera was gone. She sleeps on the floor in our living room when she stays over. We used to actually put up a tent but she seemed to outgrow that. Now she is into sleeping in a sleeping back on top of an eggshell cushion, you know the ones sometimes on hospital beds. We bought them at Wal-mart for camping. They are a little more comnfy than bare ground or floor. We used the computer to print out her pics, one was out of focus so we distorted it worse and made ART out of it. That is for her daddy. Well, I better get off of here and go spend some more quality time with my special gal. So what do you all do when grandkids are over?
