Ben, Maddie and Jacob were spoiled rotten by Grandma and Grandpa Zufelt. The kids had so much fun just hanging around the house. Maddie Mae developed a bit of an entitlement complex. They doted upon her so much that she would walk into a room and announce as a statement of fact, "Grandma/Grandpa, it's your turn to push me in the swing now. Let's go." Whenever possible they obliged her in her requests.
She colored a million special pictures for Grandma who kept all of them in a special pile. I forgot to snap a picture of Grandma and Maddie Mae with the Mother's Day card/puzzle that I blogged about back in May. While I wasn't looking, Maddie took the card she was making for Grandma and chopped it into a zillion little pieces. Grandma is such a good sport, she took all those teeny tiny pieces of paper and put the puzzle together as instructed by Maddie. It was only missing two very small pieces that I was apparently unable to locate on the kitchen floor before I mailed it. Maddie was super proud of Grandma and glad she had provided a fun "craft" to keep Grandma busy.
She also loved the sleepovers with Grandma and Grandpa in the basement and picking peas in the garden out back.
