IMPONDERABLES

After a stint in Knoxville and one in Marten with GRANDCHILDREN, I am left with the following questions.
1. Why is it that my offspring who have small children who have to be carried, have 2 story houses and the one whose children no longer need babysitting has a one story house???????
2. Why does one of the most advanced forms of communication---sattelite TV---have to have 4 remotes to operate it?????? (Praise be for Sumner to the rescue every time I wanted to watch Barney)
3. How can one possibly drive 1300 miles in 10 days delivering kids to school and ballgames???
4. How can a 8 year old and 10 year old be so angelic as acolytes and such little devils as soon as they leave church??? (only joking here)
5. How can a household that has every electronic device known to man --and woman-- not have an electric can opener? (I do like the Pampered Chef opener tho)
6. Why do the parents think we want to see photos of them lounging on a ships deck enjoying drinks with little umbreallas in them while we are at home taking care of their kids?
7. Why did I thow away my notes of other imponderables before I got this done?????????
8. Why do grandparents do what they do????

Because their children and grandchildren bring them more joy and happiness than money can buy.
