Smiling and laughing at Glenn,

This morning I am smiling and laughing about the endearing thing my husband did.

First a little history, Glenn loves babies and children. When a new baby is born in the Ward he always wants to have them over for dinner so he can cuddle with the baby. An example is Kailianna and Aramis  (He likes them as they grow too.) To insure that the children in our ward talk to him he always has candy in his pockets. Another family in our Ward recently had a baby. He is dying to go and hold it.  I told him he has to want till all their relatives leave before we can go and visit and have them over for dinner. Every few days he is asking me if the relatives have left yet.

Glenn is so excited to be a grandpa, though none are on the way yet. He talks about it a lot and often. Last September we bought a few acres of land at Lakewood Village, the lots back to national forests, and is just minutes away from Lake of the Woods (a beautiful lake). Anyway the main reason he wants to build a cabin there is for the future grandchildren. He wants to start building this year, but we will be waiting at least a year.  I want Glenn to have more time to totally recover from all his health problems last year and we need more time to save more money so we don’t have to in debt to build.

We also need Katie to grow stronger because Katie as all of our children are going to help with the building of the cabin.

So finally why am I laughing and smiling, this morning Glenn was looking in a children’s clothing catalog and showing me outfits that would be cute for the grandbabies and grandchildren. “This hat would be cute with matching pants…etc.… etc.….  I guess I will not have to worry about him complaining about me spending too much on clothes for the grandbabies.  Smile
