Why I Do The Things I Do

I am starting to understand why Grandmas are the way we are. We cater to our grand kids in a way that we didn't quite have the patience for with our children. I have this cabinet in my kitchen, that when we put it in, was intended for the storage of potatoes and onions. That ended up just being a mess,

so now I have a much better use for it.

As the grand kids came along and spent a lot of time with us, we started adding baby locks on our cupboards so they wouldn't get into them. You know, kinda baby-proofing, but I felt bad keeping them out of everything, thus stifling their inquisitiveness. I wanted them in the kitchen with me too. So now I keep my Tupperware and other storage lids in there. It is very frustrating when you are trying to find the right lid for a certain container. But I love it when they find the special little play spot I have reserved in my kitchen especially for them. They love it and it keeps them busy too. Isn't Adam darling?
My grown-up kids and kitchen helpers think I'm crazy not to be more organized, but I bet that when they become as wise as me, they will have a special little spot for their grandbabies too.
