| I need some more cars. |
Today my grandson and I played “cars”. His collection is huge, while I have only 6
cars, one of which is gone.
One by one we shared our
cars.
My little yellow and orange
plastic cars (from the movie “Cars”) to his massive earth mover which he calls his "digger". My bus to his blue car...
Yet the little stinker tried to
take them from me!
My bus, fire engine, light green VW —the
little thief tried to take them all!
Fortunately his hand could not
break through the computer screen. My car, indeed.
Skype is a marvelous invention for a grandmother longing for her little guy in Switzerland.
At least he didn’t get my
hot red convertible. It is under the
desk, hiding.

How awesome that you get to Skype with him :) that was a plot twist that I wasn't expecting!
ReplyDeleteThank you! A plot twist is what I enjoy so much.
DeleteI can just see his little arm stretching out through the screen to nab nannas cars. We have bags of toys for when the littles come and it never fails...they always take a few home with them. When they come again they look for the toys they took home and wonder why granndma doesn't still have them for them to play with.
ReplyDeleteI keep toys in the cube footstools, and they always want to take some home. It is hard to say no, isn't.
DeleteGrandkids are wonderful. Thank goodness the technology that brings them closer, but still it's no adequate substitute for having them there with you.
ReplyDeleteI want some cars! I've been eying the ones they've started displaying in the supermarket where I usually shop.

Tossing It Out
By all means, buy yourself some cars!
DeleteWhat a keeper. Don't show him that red convertible, though. He might play the cute card.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I will melt into grandma goo.
DeleteSkype sure makes things easier to share indeed, stops car thieves too haha
ReplyDeleteI am thinking of bringing the two yellow and orange cars to him when we visit.
DeleteThat's really cute. Glad you could have a fun exchange with him. Even if he did try to steal all your cars.
ReplyDeleteCan't blame him. My cars are pretty sharp. He says good-bye, tells me "I luck you" and blows me a kiss.
DeleteAnd you 'luck him' too. And probably blow a barrage of kisses to the little car thief. Drat you Susan, I have melted into goo just reading this post.
ReplyDeleteThat photo just about did me in. That little smile.
DeleteHe steals more than cars with those eyes! Cutie pie!
ReplyDeleteI know! Can't wait to see him...them.
DeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteThat's really sweet If only I could reach through the computer screen and grab those toys :)
Take care, proud grandmother.

I'd like to reach through the screen and kiss that sweet little boy face.
DeleteThe joys of skype
ReplyDeleteIf only it had been around when my own kids were little.
DeleteGive him time and he'll have that car in his collection :)
ReplyDeleteI think I will take the little yellow car when I visit.
DeleteHe's such a cutie! And keep hiding that red convertible.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I can retrieve it from under the desk anyway.
DeleteAw...beautiful boy.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hug him.
DeleteOh my goodness, look at him so cute!! Bet you'd give him the cars if he was there in person. :) :) :)
ReplyDeleteI'd take him to Toy R Us and give him my credit card, let him push the cart....but I will simply take a few new cars and trucks to Switzerland..
