Grandparent bragging

TorMATO will be our storm word forever.

We kept our three granddaughters for the weekend, almost 12, 4 and 2. They were on the way over, it was storming and they saw a funnel cloud. They went back home to wait until it was over. We stood on the porch scanning the skies for a possible tornado, but it blew through pretty quick. So they came over to bring us the girls. The 2 year old got out and excitedly said, “Papaw we saw a torMATO!”

I had eggs in the incubator, they started hatching Friday, just in time for the girls to enjoy them. They got to watch the chicks peck their way out of the shell, lay there exhausted and wet.
“Are they dead?
“No, she is just tired, it’s hard work breaking out of the shell.”

They played with chicks all weekend.

I know you live with the possibility of tornadoes.They are very rare around here. But man, I have nightmares about them all of the time. And those poor girls watching for the funnel clouds. You are much braver than I.

Gardening, such a beautiful precious baby, and with a sunny disposition to boot! I don't know why but she reminds me of the Gerber baby. Maybe it's the eyes.

Bay, what a perfect time for a sleep over. The one in the pink looks like you.

One of our kids named them "stormados" years ago, and it stuck.

The Grandsons made these for my Mother's Day gift.
