6/12/2024 Love Those Kiddos...

The most powerful hand clasp is the new born baby's hand around your little finger.

Yep I was "had" from the very first moment.

I love being a Grandma even though the gray hair look is my style nowadays.

The other day I ran across this an ‘old timers’ version of  ‘My Favourite Things’ from the legendary movie "Sound Of Music."


Some witty person has adapted the lyrics to give us all a giggle. 

Would love for the kids to hear this... Giggles are music to me. 🙂

Grandpa would have gotten a little smile from this considering he loved "The Sound Of Music too!" 

Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,

Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,

Bundles of magazines tied up in string,

These are a few of my favourite things.

Cadillacs and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,

These are a few of my favourite things. When the pipes leak,

When the bones creak, When the knees go bad,

I simply remember my favourite things,

And then I don't feel so bad.

Hot coffee and cakes, and corn pads for bunions,

No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heat pads and hot meals they bring, These are a few of my favourite things. Back pains, confused brains, and no fear of sinnin',

Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin',

And we won't mention our short shrunken frames, When we remember our favorite things. When the joints ache, when the hips break,

When the eyes grow dim, Then I remember the great life I've had,

And then I don't feel so bad...


A Smile for your day...


Nana
