I love it when the kids sit around telling stories about their childhoods...the grandkids are absolutely rapt as we grandparents tell on their moms and dads...;-D

I do spoil them in material ways, too...for a year or so, one of the kids had heavy dental expense--huge, really--so I bought all the granddaughters' clothes...we used to have a ball shopping for the latest, most stylish fashions along with the quality stuff...

Grandkids...my own included...love to hear about their parents when THEY were growing up. Mine rolled on the floor when they saw some of my kids HS pictures (hairdos, clothing, etc.)

My own father was a great story teller. He would begin by asking me if I wanted to hear a true story or a made-up story. They were all fascinating but I liked the true ones best.

When my own kids were little, I remember once on a sunny day OUTDOORS when I told them some made-up-on-the-spot ghost stories, they got scared (they said) and ran into the house.
