Anymore requests

[Qwerty]

Today I received my DDs request for childminding in the school holidays, hold on to your hats grandmas that childmind it's only a few weeks away , I have obliged but had to move a hair appointment, inc all my g/c I will have the equivalent of 22 children passing through my door in the 6 wk holiday, no sympathy please I shall accept it as a challenge 😱

Mine are away for two weeks out of six! Looking forward to some days out hopefully.

Good luck Qwerty. Rosie will be coming, but as she is 14, she won't take any looking after.

I am so glad my 4 big boys are all at work phew!! the two little ones (shouldn't call them that as they are 12&14) will just drop in to see me on days mum is at work for feeding purposes only and top up of pocket money if they run out I must admit I did enjoy those years when they all came out to Spain for the 6 week holiday they all stayed with me whilst mum went home after 2 weeks and I flew back with them in time for school starting,I can't think where I got the energy from.

My DD is away for 2 weeks but the cheeky twins will be here so no respite really

That's a good idea a month in Spain sounds heaven with the kids

GD and baby GS will be away for 2 and a half weeks, which is 3 Fridays ( my usual day to have them) I want GD a couple of extra days as well plus sleepovers. I am staking my claim!
With GS1 it will be the usual Mondays, but from 8.30ish rather than from preschool at 11.45.
No extra requests as yet!

I will only have J and Dog 3 days a week in Holliday's
J is at a age where he will be only hear like Glamms for a feed and money , he will be out and about with his friends while I sit at home and worry what he's getting up too
I do miss the baby years when I had them all the time but they grow up and things happen that your services are no longer required as much , but I too wonder where I got the time and energy from ,
Qwerty good luck it aint easy as we all know , keep that smile on your face love even if you have to staple it there and prop your eyes open with match sticks hahaha xxx

Think yourself lucky Qwerty, in 4 weeks time there is no more girly days for me .

LG - Oh dear, their moving date seems to have crept up very quickly.

I have no idea what my holiday commitments will be, apart from my usual Mondays and Tuesdays with the girls, plus DS1's dog for just over 2 weeks at the end of July.

LG. maybe they will want you to go over and look after the girls in sometimes the holidays once they move, or them come to you for part of the holidays? Or is this the teacher DD, who doesn't work school holidays?

[Libra Gran]

This is the ex teacher but has had headship roles for a few years,soon to be SENCO.Which is more of an advisory role ensuring children with special needs get those needs met within their school. SIL will be house husband/daddy for a few months until girls well settled.So can't see my services being required.Altthough DD said what will I do without you Mum.Actually feeling quite down at the prospect actually,we have been such a big part of their lives.

Oh Libra I can feel your pain 😢
