Little Visitors...

Nothing brightens up our house like surprise visits from our two favorite little people, Maddie and Cade. I'm glad that they enjoy coming to MiMi and E's house. When Maddie comes over, her favorite line to say is "What we goin' to do now?" She likes to be entertained.

The other night Madison says to my husband, "E, get up and skate for me! I can't skate 'cause my back hurts!" I laughed and told her she'd been around too many old people! Good old E-pa got up from the couch after a hard day's work and pretended to skate with her on the carpet.

E-pa is notorious for giving out "treats" and it hasn't taken Cade long to figure that out. In the picture above, you can see part of E-pa holding the beloved candy jar. You can also see Cade pointing and asking for a treat. That's the scenario at our house every time the grandchildren visit.

It's only been about a month since Cade learned where the candy jar is, but he doesn't forget between visits. Last night when Cade popped in for a quick visit, he went to the shelf where the candy jar usually sits and pointed. Unfortunately, the jar was empty and wasn't there because I'd washed it. I guess MiMi better get busy and go to the store!
