Bad Habit

The reason that kids love being dropped off at their grandparents house is because they get to do things and eat things that their parents won't let them do or have. Apparently the grandparents start when the grandchildren are babies!
My lovely mother was wonderful enough to teach Riley how to go up and down the stairs. Now, before we went to MD Riley wouldn't dare go up or down the stairs. Even if there wasn't a gate she stayed away from the stairs because it was a "no no." To keep Riley entertained while I was showering and getting ready, Kiki used the stairs! Wonderful! Riley had a good old time going up and down the stairs with Kiki. Kiki was always with Riley though when she would go near the stairs so that no accidents would happen. Of course one day while Kiki was still at work and Riley and I were playing downstairs Riley climbed up the steps in the blink of an eye. As I went to go get her she came tumbling down the stairs. Needless to say Kiki was in big trouble!! Riley definitely got freaked out by the fall and didn't go near the stairs again unless someone was holding her! Thank goodness for that! Don't worry mom...we still love you! Your a great grandma!!

I'm thinking maybe you need to stay with me next time. Riley won't learn any bad habits from moi.
Love you guys, Auntie Terry
