More Quotes from Dr. Seuss!

This past Saturday my sweet grandsons spent the night - they typically do on Saturdays, and since my oldest grandson is just a few months from being 16, I know what an amazing blessing it is the boys still want to come for their weekly sleepover! Not only did they come over, but my oldest grandson also wanted to make cookies, so he made Toll House Cookies - they were delicious! It was such a fun and wonderful weekend!
