All Good things...

We laughed, we cried, we ran through the house...

We cuddled, we kissed and looked deep into each others eyes...

We touched every rock, twig, shell, plant, book, candle, coaster, and CD in the flat...

We ate ice cream, smelled wine, and had pizza at the Marks & Spencer caf...

We pretty much did as we pleased... because Grandma said it was "okay"!

She even served "Caveman Style," on my last day!

Now... unfortunately... it must come to an end.

Back to Manchester, with Mum and Dad, where it all begins.

Until the next time Grandma... I love you so much.

There is nothing so special as you, me and us!

Love, Max

[Hidden in reply to Rimmy]

Thank you! I think so, but I am definitely prejudice! : )

[Rimmy in reply to Hidden]

So you SHOULD be !! - but relationships are what you make them and he is so lucky you are his 'Grandma' !! (I just call myself 'Grand')

[Footfairy-1]

Ahhhhhh. Touched my heart❤️. So much love for each other.

[Hidden in reply to Footfairy-1]

He is a precious soul!!!

[Jean56]

Wonderful photo, one definitely for the album. Great you had such a fantastic time. Lots of wonderful memories to see you through until the next time.

[Hidden]

YES! It is already on his "private" Facebook page (with the appropriate commentary!) that Grandma keeps for him... I add comments/photos regularly, so that when I am dead and gone and he's older, he will see that we had lots of fun and made many memories, that will just need to be jogged into his consciousness!

[yogabonnie in reply to Hidden]

you are so young.. you will not be dead and gone until he is quite old and will remember it all himself! But what a fun thing to do! .. How does one make a private Facebook page..that is really private?

[Hidden in reply to yogabonnie]

Hi yogabonnie, Yes... it is "PRIVATE." Only his parents, my husband and I, his other Grandparents, and his Uncles and Aunts have access... I opened it shortly after he was born; the first photos I posted were in the hospital, the day he was being born... i.e. Mommy with her big belly sitting on the hospital bed, him and Mummy being rolled out of theatre, etc.. From then on I post special moments (photos) that he and I have shared or photos Mom has hared with me. You go to "Settings" and you specifically name the only people who can have access to his Page. It is set up in his name, so I've given access info, to his Mum & Dad... I hope I am here, but in case something happens he will see at least several years of him and I having fun!

[SnazzyD]

Love the caveman dinner

[Hidden in reply to SnazzyD]

It was hysterical!!!!!! It had been on MY plate and "poof" it was gone!!!!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

😂😂😂 I had to look twice to check no-one was holding his arm up with the massive Flintstone snack....BAM BAM🌻

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

I know right!

[shella]

Fabulous!

[Sandy1947]

Great photo! I have B’day party for Jonah (4) and Juliette (2) at a gym in NYC! The theme is Superheros! I think grandmas fit in that category!

[Hidden in reply to Sandy1947]

YES! You should wear a SUPERHERO costume!!!!!

[JulianJ]

Sounds like Max had a great time with Grandma

Lots of new memories for you to keep until you build the next set together.

[Hidden in reply to JulianJ]

Yes indeed! My (rustic and already beat up) coffee table has some of our new "memories" etched into it, by the potato masher that Grandma stupidly gave him!

I don't know... I guess I assumed, one of the other 2 adults, who were here, would have had an eye on him, while Grandma was cooking that leg of lamb! NOT! hahahahahahaha

[karools16]

Oh mamici1. A picture paints a thousand words. This little boy and his bone are priceless!

[Hidden in reply to karools16]

I know, right? He too it right off my plate as I was just sitting down.... he cleaned it pretty good, too! Like a buzzard! 🦅

[SheffieldJane]

That made me cry Melissa. Will you look at Bam Bam!

[morrison]

Just big kisses. And I know how you feel. Xx

[Jackoh]

What a great photo and lovely idea of private Facebook page. Think I might steal that idea! So great that you had such a wonderful time Melissa!!

[Hidden in reply to Jackoh]

Thank you! ...and yes, I love posting "Max & Me," stuff on his page... I imagine him in his 20's or 30's and looking back at a chronological, pictorial history of "us."

I post videos out there too! Me talking to him and him babbling back at me!

[Jackoh in reply to Hidden]

Such a good idea!! Xx

[4840]

Oh, so adorable - a grandchild can be so much fun!

[Hidden in reply to 4840]

...and so much work! : 0

[4840]

....one has to have the energy, and PMR can limit this. My granddaughter is now 13, and a different story!

[Hidden in reply to 4840]

...now yes, that sounds like a fun! Not tat Max wasn't but he refuses to listen to reason!

Hahahahahahahahahaha! ; )

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Hidden]

And you think teenagers listen to reason???????????????????

[Hidden in reply to PMRpro]

True!
