lnxw48a1: Ordered some clothing for #Little_Boy_A and #Little_Boy_A2. The 7 year old and the 4 year old have the same waist size, so ordering pants is sort of questionable. Will the legs be long enough for the older child? Will this shirt fit the younger child without dragging the floor? I often try to avoid #Amazon, but this time, I ordered from there. One of the things I dislike about https://nu.federati.net/notice/3346231

lnxw48a1: I awoke to see a screenshot of #sonOne's order of clothing for #Daddy_A's daughter #Little_Girl_A3. He got everything: shoes, socks, pants, panties, shirts. There's even one item that might be a jacket. Now grandpa needs to put in an order for clothing for #Little_Boy_A and #Little_Boy_A2. I also have a list of items to order for #GS3.

lnxw48a1: #Daddy_A asked me to pick up #Fortnite and join him, #sonTwo, and #Little_Boy_A in a game. So I've asked @amic@nulled.red and @corbin what I need to do. It's honestly not likely that I'll be available at the exact time they play, but I'll make an effort to join them.

I'd like to sit down with #GS3 and #Little_Boy_A / #Little_Boy_A2 / #Little_Girl_A3 and binge watch the first few seasons ... if they can watch without karate chopping one another.

lnxw48a1: Added another book and three mini Thomas the Tank Engine to the list of things to ship to #Daddy_A. "The World Needs More Purple People" looks like the younger two will like it more than #Little_Boy_A (age 7) will, but I'm probably not going to buy a specific "big boy" item this time.

lnxw48a1: I dearly love the videos, pictures, and videochats with #GS3, but I still feel like they're giving him too much screen time. None of us knew better when #GD1, #GD2, and #Little_Boy_A were little, so they spent hours each day in front of glowing rectangles. I wish this last grandchild to grow up acquainted with, but not engrossed in whatever's on the screen.
