This grandpa picks up between 2:40 and 3:00, tail end of naptime, everyday. Instead of waiting at the door for me to open it and send his granddaughter out..he has to come in, let the door slam, tries to wake up kids to say hi, riles up the kids who are already awake but sitting quietly, talks to his granddaughter and me, and then leaves and lets the door slam behind him.
What is P.M. snack? A mixture of chocolate chips, Golden Graham's and marshmallows.
I can't do today. I'm done.
Sugar, sugar, and more sugar. The person who makes the menu needs to deal with the kids.
Tell Grandpa to stay outside of the door.
