We went to London where we stopped to pick up mom because of a little boy's persistent request that we take gramma to the Train store.
Once there he gleefully showed gramma the trains that he didn't have. He then winnowed it down the two that he just had to have. Hard choice for a wee lad.
Gramma chose to spoil him.
He chose an Emily (with her two green coaches)
And a Sir Handel with his two red coaches.
So we have one very happy little boy who refused to nap for gramma. he had new trains! gramma was too much fun!
he apparently ate like a horse for gramma.
Jim and I had a nice day out. We just hung out together. didn't have a lot of shopping to do so we just went willy-nilly here and there. Fun to do that once in a while.
I should add this since Jim found the answer to a query.... we passed a protest of some sort or other and wondered what FARC was all about. Jim found the answer here.
They were among hundreds of thousands estimated to have marched at the same time in 185 cities around the world to protest the actions of FARC (the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia).

Hi there! Never did this comment thing before! Aren't grandma's great!!! You are so lucky to have your mom close and available! Was looking over your other enteries and had to chuckle about the "I'll throw you out the window!!" Oh man can I relate to that one!! That is exactly how one feels at times!!! As they get older though it kind of changes -- it sounds more like " oh man, I am ready to jump out that window and leave!!" lol!!! That is me jumping and running - not them!! lol!! Anyway - blessings to your day! HOpe it's a good one!!!
Karen, you made me laugh! Thanks! Good to have a good morning chuckle. Thanks for commenting. :)
