Grandma's Home! Grandma's Home!

Yesterday Grandma Betty left work early because she was going to get her lawn mowed.  When she opened the sliding door she peeked in and there was Dylan on the couch suppose to be taking a nap, but he was wide awake.  He got this great big smile on his face and said, "Are you home from work Grandma?" and then he started yelling really loud, "Grandpa, Grandpa! Grandma's home! Grandma's home!"  He was so excited because he knew now that Grandma was home that she would start playing with him instead of making him take a nap.  Naturally the lawn didn't get mowed. Grandma and Dylan went down to the nursing home to visit Great Grandma Bentzin.  Dylan was entertaining Great Grandma Bentzin telling her the names of all his Thomas and Friends engines.  He knows them all. Then they went down to watch the birds, but Dylan noticed that the volunteers were helping the residents bowl in the living room, so they had to go check that out.  Grandma Bentzin doesn't like to bowl, but she watches.  When it was Gladys's turn, Dylan would shout "Good Job Gladys" after she rolled her ball.  Gladys had the best score at the end, so she got to wear the Champion hat for the day.  Dylan looked over at her "Way to go, Gladys." he said.  She is the one Dylan gives high fives to every time he's there.  When they were ready to go home, Dylan turned at the door and said "Bye, people."  Grandma Betty says, The joy in all their faces when they see him come through the door makes up for all the running she has to do to keep up with him.  She doesn't know who gets more wore out, her or him.
