"I'm Sorry, Grandma Lu..."

Grandma Lu had never been in charge of anything except her own house. Grandma B had put her in charge of Marleewood while she took Marlee to the Walnut Festival. Things were going from bad to really bad. She found herself walking in circles and talking to herself. "This just will not do, Girl. You have to get a hold of yourself. If B thinks you can do this, then you have to show her and yourself that you can. You need a plan."


" Okay, well, Emma and her mama made cookies. So I have snacks for those that want one. Liam's mom is awake so I think I will ask her to be in charge of snacks and drinks. Hopefully she will help."


"I know a lady that can crochet so I will call her to help Bella learn to crochet. Hopefully she will come to my rescue."


 Grandma Lu was feeling disappointed and didn't know where to turn next when she heard a crash. She heard Connelly say, "Oops, I didn't mean to."


"Oh dear oh dear. I surely hope that wasn't anything of B's. I think that most everything at Marleewood is not expensive and most things have been donated. I just will not worry about it, but I had better get in there and see what happened.  Hopefully Connelly is alright."


Grandma Lu was relieved to see that the crash was just a box of toys that had fallen and spilled on the floor. So she asked Arie if she would help Connelly pick up the toys.


"This day certainly reminds me of an old old story about a Little Red Hen. I wonder if this just might be the right time to tell a story"....

  1. Such an old old story, but it's lessons will hold true until the end of time. I wonder if the story will help Grandma Lu out.

  2. I wonder how many familys still tell these stories and actually realize the lessons behind them? Thanks Lu for keeping these stories alive and the lessons learned from them.
