If mom says no, ask grandma

Mark gets back from China tonight. Yay. But I am designing the lights for the Giver at BYU and I had to be at rehearsals every night this last week. So my mom came to stay to help with the kids. My dad also came down part way through. I am so thankful to my mom. She had a hard time getting around because of a hurt back, but she trooped around my house helping with everything. Collin and Clara loved having her here. And my dad also. Collin particularly liked the m & m's he got for a treat everyday. Today just before they left my dad gave Collin some in a bowl. After he ate all those he wanted more. I told him no that we were done with m & m's. Without missing a beat, he turned and yelled "bampa, bampa" and wandered around trying to find my dad. I told him that grandpa had gone outside. Without missing another beat, he turned and yelled, "mamma, mamma" He knew that if I wouldn't give it to him, one of them would. After waving goodbye to them today, I put Collin down for a nap. My mom predicted that where's bampa would be the first words out of his mouth when he woke up. She was right. Where's bumpa. Where's mamma, he asked. They went home I said. No, upstairs, he responed. He was very sad to find that they had really gone. Thanks again mom and dad.
