(I should start out by saying that my four year old grandson didn’t write this. Basically I took notes of different things he said all night after we left for Eldora Speedway on Saturday, April 28.)
Grandpa showed up while I was playing at my house. Mommy and our neighbor Taylor (she’s my babysitter, though I’m not a baby anymore) were there, too.
