Weekend Reminders - Saturday Snapshots

Recently, our four-year-old granddaughter stayed with us over the weekend. On Monday morning, I found these reminders of her visit around the house. We're so lucky that our grandchild lives close enough for her to be a part of our lives. 

We already had a lot of books, but a good friend gave me her children's Berenstain
 Bears book collection (and their Mickey Mouse Yahtzee game too!) Now there's
never a shortage of exciting stories to share. You'll notice we also have some classics:
The Little Engine That Could and Where the Wild Things Are, to name a couple.
There are more books downstairs in our library too!
Tea time! Somehow this china tea set survived my childhood (and my two younger brothers).
My granddaughter and I have tea parties regularly, substituting apple juice for tea and serving
graham crackers, apple slices, or dried cranberries as our main course.
These toys, lined up in a row, greeted me when I walked into the bathroom this morning.
They squirt water through their mouths, creating lots of giggles. Usually, grandma ends up getting a shower from these critters.
FYI: The table and chairs and the doll house came from the Goodwill store. After our granddaughter has outgrown them and moved on to other things, we'll donate them back to the organization for other children to enjoy.
