Yes I am Older than dirt!!! 😅😂but the best of times!

We should do one on "The Treasures in Grandma's Purse"!
What kids didn't go through their Grandma's purse? Not mom's purse, because she would have smacked the daylights out of you; but grandma would let you get away with A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G 😏🥳
My Grandma had a never-ending supply of clove gum in hers. She also always carried FeenAMint, but we didn't touch that stuff 😆. There was always a wad of extra Kleenex in there too, but the one you had to watch out for was the wadded up one she had rolled up in her sleeve; she'd lick it then wipe the dirt off your face with it 😣 (part of being a kid -- Grandma's spit on your face). She also had a magic money bag in there; whatever you wanted, she always had enough to buy it for you (especially candy..... In spite of my mom's objections). 😂
Must be how this saying came about --
If Mama says no, ask Grandma. 😎

OH NO!!! 🤣🤣🤣
That's terrible ( yet also funny) ☺️
Why do older kids lie to their younger siblings??
My little brother is a few years younger than me. When he was 4 years old, I told him that the reason they called the greenery around the walkway "monkey grass" is because there are tiny monkeys in it. Well, an hour later my little brother disappeared, and with night falling, everyone was frantically looking for him.
When we found him, he was bent over the monkey grass with a flashlight, looking for the little monkeys 🐒
🙉🙈🙊

Please let your brothers know that even though 50+ years have passed since that happened, it's still making people laugh til their eyes water 😂😂😂
