Thanks, Grandpa, they cheered as we drove to LAX, thank you and merry Christmas. The cruise was fantastic! Cabo, Mazatlán,... sure beats shoveling snow back home! Very generous.
Everyone stay a few more days, I said, long as you like. Borrow the cars -- we’ll babysit the grandkids. We wish we could, they said.
Then hugs from little Jimmy and Diane at security. Biggest ones for grandma, but that’s the way it goes.
Grandma and I held hands on the drive home but said nothing. The cruise was great, but I could never make up for all the Christmases gone by.
