Mr. Caffeinated won a contest at work for Grandparent’s Day. So today we along with the Royals, and their parents are attending a special breakfast and enjoying a day at the Children’s Museum. After last weekend at Vala’s pumpkin patch and then, our community picnic; complete with face-painting, ponies, bounce houses and water ice, our grandchildren think we rock. Me, I am a tired but I prayed for something to keep my mind far from the worries that have been plaguing us. The Lord has certainly answered. ?Stay Caffeinated!
