Everyone needs a Porter in their life!








Porter is birthday buddies with his Aunt Phoebe - and he's a bright light in our lives too!

A couple of years ago, Porter came to my classroom twice a week for some extra tutoring - I was so impressed with his hard work and diligence - he's a great little scholar - and works hard and carefully!!

I love hanging out with him - he's a great conversationalist - and is always up for a good time!  He's liberal with the compliments too - who can resist??

Have a great day Porter - and a great year ahead - looking forward to our birthday weekend next week!

Grandma's Birthday Weekend!!


I picked up Porter after school on the 19th, and we headed for the Scout House for a new Cub Scout uniform for Porter.  He had his first pack meeting on Tuesday night.  Told anyone who would listen that he was pretty excited because "My grandma works for the Cub Scouts and I get to come!"  (Harry and I are the co-Cubmasters - a very fun job btw!!)
 

On Saturday morning, we went and picked up Harry W. and headed to IHOP for breakfast - always a treat.  The boys had fun as we left the restaurant and they discovered several insects of various species - much more interesting than anything I could come up with!!  Gotta love little boys!!

We did some shopping and it started to drizzle.  It wasn't much, but they didn't want to go on the hike I had planned.  Porter kept saying, "I just want to stay at your house."

So we did - played Golf, tetherball, and watched a little Harry Potter for fun.  Sometimes kids know what they want to do - they didn't want to go out for lunch either - just wanted peanut butter and jam.

Grandpa Bob worked his magic Friday night - Porter seemed happy with the whole deal.  And frankly, I can't think of a better way to spend time than with the likes of Porter and Harry W.!!

And I have always been a fan of p, b, and j!!
