Out for Icecream

When your first grandbaby comes along, you are full of energy and can't wait to take him to the zoo or feed him that first ice cream cone. You hope mom and dad will let you take the kids all by yourself and are a little disappointed when they insist on tagging along..

But when grandbaby two comes along you realize that you are not as young as you used to be. It takes both grandma and grandpa to get both babies in and out of car seats and it takes twice as long to load up all the gear you need for even the most simple trip.  So instead of trying to talk mom and dad into letting you take the kids to get some ice cream, you wait for mom and dad to tell you they are going to take the kids to get some and then you invite yourself to tag along.
