Snowball fights with the Grandkids.

I played snowball fights with my grandson yesterday. We wrapped up warm and went out to play.

Ben’s 4 years old, and loved playing the game, and at the time I felt the same.

We ran and laughed as we played in the snow, till his mother shouted it was time for us to go. Today I rose from my bed, aching back and aching head.

Old age can be so cruel, but it was worth the pain.

For that wonderful, wonderful, day when our age was the same.

My wife said it serves you right you silly old fool, your not 4 years old and you don’t go to school.

Snowball fights at 63! One day you’ll be the death of me.

I laughed heartly here.Thank you for the great share. I just had my 6 year old grandson for 12 days while parents were out of the country. It took me a week to get back to myself. Enjoy all you can, my friend, they grow way too fast. Your wife is right to go easy though!

Having some pain has its gains. Laughter is the best medicine for all ailments. Grandchildren are its recipe.:)

My wife always mentions how I have to take a nap after playing with my 7 year old grandson. You are so right….it is well worth the pain to see those smiling faces of a grandchild.

Wow, what fun! I hope you didn’t suffer as much as some European countries did with all the snow. Here in the PI, it’s over 28 deg Celsius. Hot and humid
