white hair and big glasses

We like to spend a few hours with Shaun’s parents at least once a month. Today they brought us to lunch along with Grandma.

At some point during lunch, a woman and her children came in and one was screaming quite loudly.
Grandma looked over at Shaun’s dad and without fear of CPS popping out of the booth next to us and said, “My kids never did that. You certainly never did that. If you did that when you were a kid I would have shoved my fist down your throat.”

Shaun’s dad, in typical Shaun’s Dad fashion said, “Ohhh Geez! Mom!” and looked around to see if anyone had heard his mother say that.

I had a mouth full of French Dip when she said it.

She then said, “You know. I have like 22 grandchildren.  I am so lucky.  Not an ugly one in the bunch.”

I love having lunch with that woman.

    She sounds just like my mother.

    The mother who always starts our conversations with “you know sweetheart I never really wanted kids”.

    Nice. :) Glad your lunch was entertaining! lol.
