This is a photo I really love, Kaitlyn our third oldest grandchild with her Dad. She was the pre-schooler I babysat for, while her parents were both at work. Divorce changed all of this. Our time together was wonderful, I loved spending five days a week with this little girl! We bonded and did many fun things, to keep her entertained each day. I had an old cassette tape about Betty Boop, that Kaitlyn liked to watch. Of course, I'd sit down and share this time with her, even though the repetition was boring. I miss those days, even though she's a grownup at this time. I wonder if Kaitlyn has fond memories, of the time we shared at Grandma's house Photo: A selfie, taken by Chad#2

I am sure she does, whether or not she openly admits to it now, you know, in time, she will, especially when she has a child of her own who wants to hear that same story AGAIN.

Kaitlyn has drifted away from being associated with her Grandma J. It hurts, but she's definitely not rude or mean to me:)

@kobesbuddy I am so sorry to hear that, Kharla, but sadly, it happens to us all at times. I pray she soon realizes the who has always been by her side and with HIS tenderloving care, reaches out to ou lovingly again soon.

@Chellezhere As a little girl, she was best friends with her Grandma:)

@kobesbuddy I know that kids loved to go where there was a playground.

Kaitlyn liked the playground equipment, inside the AuGres McDonalds. She would meet other children, as I watched and enjoyed a Latte:)

I am positive she remembers her time with you. It's a shame you don't see her anymore. That's a lovely picture.

@LindaOHio I do see Kaitlyn, probably about once a year. We live 300 miles apart.

Hope so, but I have trouble remembering from back then. Then again, it was a long time ago for me!

My memory is bad for recent events. But, things that happened years ago, my memory is sharp.
