again, I say, where is the mother that I grew up with????? Beachboy asked over and over for "club penguin" merch, and being the good mother that I was trained to be, I said "no" over and over and over.
BEHOLD... Beachboy starts yelling "awesome, Gramma you are awesome" while he pulls out this red ball of fluff and brown T-shirt.
I had no clue what Mom had put in that box since she was such a straight-laced mother and if our requests were in any way "popular", "fashion-forward" or based on a tv character she always let us know it was just not appropriate.
Obviously, I needed a computer in the old days ... apparently internet characters are OK!

It constantly blows me away that the things we thought were deal-breakers in our parents' worlds, suddenly are hunky-dory when it comes to being grandparents. What's with that?
(and hey, thanks for the blogroll mention, mama.)
