Grandma Judy makes everyone smile


Grandma Judy just finished what she described as her "best spring break ever."
No, she didn't go to Panama City; She was not a Grandma Gone Wild.
She stayed right here in Lawrence, Kan., and took care of little Evey Jones all week long. Me and Adro would be getting ready for work, and in would walk Grandma Judy, usually with a few books, and always with some food she'd cook that day.
She helped with our laundry, our omnipresent dirty dishes, she cooked dinner... she did everything but Adrianne's homework. And she saved us a week's worth of cash that would normally go to our regular daytime babysitter.
And like I said, when it was all over, she called it her best spring break ever.
Another thing that just dawned on me -- both me and Adro got sick this week, me on Monday, Adro on Tuesday. And she took care of us, too.
So you see, she really took care of our whole family this week. We tried to say thank you yesterday by treating her to dinner at Ixtapa, but we're going to have to do better than that to really say thanks for all she did for us this week.
So thank you again, Judy, for being Evey's favorite spring breaker in all of the world this week.
