I have only one problem with this and that is WHY WASN'T I INVITED? I mean, jeepers, I would have passed on the slide, but the carousel? COMEON!!! LOVED IT MUCH AS YOU DID! XXOO

I wish I had a grandkid like Lexi. I wish I could ride a carousel with my grandkid. What a good picture! How beautifully and well-written with a good rhyming!
Thank you for sharing.

I would ride carousels with her all day if I could find a place to do so and had enough quarters to feed the machine -- love, jan

I am now a 'Nana' and it brings me great joy to relive my childhood for the third time. This time I can experience it through little girls (I was a tomboy).

artemis53: I was a tomboy, my daughter was a tomboy, and this is going to be, too -- however, my daughter knew how to be a young lady, too -- I'm hoping Lexi will do the same -- love, jan

I enjoy reading about times you have shared with your granddaughter. I wish more children had you for a grandmother. The world would be a better place.

I like this a lot! You've captured the childhood joy of a day at the amusement park in a winning poem.
The phofo is adorable. :-) You are one cool Nanny! You two squeezed every drop of fun and love out of this experience. How brilliant is that?! Wonderful writing. :-)
