I absolutely relished the time I spent looking after my grandson for two days a week and my granddaughter when she was born five years later , for three days a week. Little lad was an absolute delight... he was an ‘easy peasy’ child. The little girl was awkward, outdoorsy,outgoing, noisy,indeed everything her brother wasn’t.... then I realised all I had to do was put on her coat,hat and boots... bought her a tiny wheelbarrow and a gardening tool set and open the back door. Out she went .... and three days a week for two years all I got was snails, worms, woodlice, spiders,grasshoppers, ladybirds, black beetles, every imaginable creepy crawly she could dig up, unearth, catch, would come my way in various boxes, Tupperware , at one stage I had to make a ‘castle’ to keep all the creepies in. I also remember packaging them one day,into large shoebox and taking them on the bus when I took her home to parents. She convinced me their garden had no creepies !! Although grandson was quieter and more studious and easy to be with.... I have the most wonderful memories of my two years with my wonderful, spirited granddaughter.... grab your chance .... shive on your wellies and your coats and enjoy this little girl for all it’s worth. Oh.... and but a garden tool set just in case!! Better than a pink Barbie anyway!!
