Grandpa David has a new responsibility...

Yesterday our neighbor Mike Insani [purchased the Lofgren home] called and left a message that he would like to talk with David. So David walked over to his home to see what he wanted. Well... it seems that their two little girls... Breanna starting the 6th grade and Melanie starting the 4th grade needed supervision for an hour each morning and a ride to their school bus stop which is beyond the Illahee store. They are going to Brownsville school instead of the local school of View Ridge. So Mike asked David to help him. He and his wife must leave earlier as they both work. I think I was surprised that Grandpa David said he would give it a try. So Mike and the girls arrived this morning at about 7:10. Mike told David that the girls are not to watch TV before school. They can read or do homework. He wrote down all the needed information. Breanna stayed in the living room reading a book. I took out the legos for Melanie and she played with them for a while. I showed her about pick-up-sticks and David played one game with her. Melanie is more curious and likes to be around people and she was impressed that Grandpa David was an artist. She likes to draw horses. So David started giving her a painting lesson. This should be a very interesting experience. Life is full of surprises!!!
