Yeah,
My oldest grandkid is 8 and he has already caught on to it. The others are 3, 2, and 8 months so I should be able to keep it going for awhile longer.

re: Now being a parent of two kids, I realized my parents lied to me
Posted by Kingshakabooboo on 4/12/26 at 3:32 pm to Ssubba
We had this discussion at Easter. Both my kids were over with their spouses and my 4 grandkids. I have this running joke where when I pick up any one of my grands for a hug I always whisper in their ear that I love them and they are my favorite. My wife was fussing at me and saying I shouldn’t do that. Both my daughter and my son thinks it’s funny. My son tells me “I know you love them all and are joking but we all know Caroline (oldest granddaughter from my daughter) really is your favorite. Which is probably true.
Again my wife was fussing saying a parent/grandparent shouldn’t have favorites. My daughter asks her why not because she always did. Of course my wife denies this and says she loves both her children equally. Again both my kids laugh and told her No, her son was her favorite just like my daughter was my favorite. To which I and my son both agreed. My wife was just dumbfounded they both felt that way. Both my son and daughter told her it was fine because they both grew up feeling tremendous love and support from both of us and never doubted that love but their were definite favorites.
As another poster already stated, you just tend to vibe with one a little more than the others. I would without question sacrifice my life for any of my kids or grandkids, but yes there are favorites.

Strike Zone Charters in Big Pine Key. They do small group snorkel and dive charters out to Looe Reef. They are very professional and very friendly.
Danger Charters in Key West. They take small groups out in a sail boat several miles then anchor near some mangrove islands. They offload a bunch of kayaks and you get to spend some time kayaking in and around the islands. Mangrove islands are like marine life nurseries and natural sanctuaries. Lots of neat things to see. When you get back to boat you get to snorkel for awhile. That parts just ok because you aren’t on a reef so not near the stuff to see but it’s still enjoyable.
Then while sailing back they treat you to wine and fruits/cheeses and you get to watch the sunset into the sea from the sailboat.
Fly out to Dry Tortugas.
Shark Fishing Charter out of Marthon. Several good Captains to choose from.
Hang out at Bahia Honda State Park. The beach on the southeast side is usually less crowded and the better beach. While you are swimming glance over to the bridge to the next key which is only a couple hundred yards away and try not to freak out thinking about the 20 ft Great Hammerhead that lives under that bridge. His name is Big Moe.
As another post mentioned and I concur…eat at El Siboney Cuban restaurant in Key West. It is fantastic. They also have a location in Marathon.

Wife got me the Ninja Professional Plus Processor for Christmas. I didn’t think I would use it much but it is awesome and I use it quite a bit.
Making your own sauce out of dried peppers is the way to go. So much better than canned sauces. You have to do it a few times to dial in the exact flavor profile you want but premade sauces aren’t even comparable.

Don’t really enjoy baking.
Not a big fan of frying, at least not indoors. Frying fish in the back yard is fine.

Funniest of all time…No.
But is extremely funny and very quotable. I would imagine there are way more people that love it than hate it.

You are not teacher, sage or Dad (per se). You are with him. Near 100% success when in this zone. Blessing begot more blessings. Next thing he is inviting you into things you did not know was in his mind. You are looking into the future together. What if’ing things…opportunities. Just awesome stuff.

I sure hope OP reads your comments. Not sure anyone could have given any better advice than this.

This is a good list. Asterisk for Bodacious. It’s good for Shreveport Q but really only slightly above average. I would add Blind Tiger downtown and if you want some really good soul food head down North Market street to Taylor’s.

I have owned 5 cats in my life. One was cool as shite. The other 4 were the pure spawns of Satan. I have owned 7 dogs in my life. 1 sucked arse and I couldn’t wait for the little shite to die. There were 4 that were pretty good pets and 2 I loved damn near as much as my own children. Draw from that whatever conclusion you wish.

I made this comment on another post but it applies here as well.
College sports fans don’t base their fandom on business decisions. I’m a fan of LSU because I enjoy watching the football team, baseball team, and men’s basketball team compete at a high level. When they are not competing at a high level it decreases the amount of enjoyment I get out of being a fan. Jay Johnson has created a program that brings many lots of joy. If we lose him, the program will suffer. We fans will suffer. Example..see basketball post Will Wade. I don’t give a shite if the programs make money or lose money. Inside a shirt they are fun to watch. I’m glad Mulkey is here and our girls are competitive. I took my daughter to the National Championship game and it’s a memory I will cherish forever but quite frankly if they went back to sucking I and most fans wouldn’t really care. Same with softball. Honestly I care more about the women’s gymnastics staying viable than any of the other women’s sports but even them not at the expense of baseball.
We have an opportunity to competing yearly for championships in football, baseball, and men’s basketball. Business decisions be damned, we need to be making decisions that keep these three on top. And I don’t care if nationally baseball isn’t that big a deal. At LSU it is a big deal and if you want to keep LSU fans happy, then the administration better act like it.
