We’re watching my 6 year old grand-daughter for a week. She lives 3 States away, so we’re thrilled as all get out to have her.
But on the first day, after 3 hours of her chasing me around the yard, swimming in the pool, playing kickball, doing jumping jacks, and playing at the park, I said.
“Lena. Grandma and Grandpa are tired. Wanna watch cartoons?” My son told me when he dropped her off.
“Dad. Not too much TV for Lena.”
“Ya ok.” I replied.
So I found a Popeye DVD I had. I turned it on for her and she says.
“Grandpa. This is boring. I want to watch Mutton Stuff.” Me? I never heard of it.
She watched Mutton Stuff for an hour. Then she watched, “Paw Patrol.” Never heard of that either.
I thought both cartoons sucked. But I didn’t tell her that.
Give me Popeye, Roadrunner, Elmer Fudd, and Mickey and Donald anytime over this new cartoon stuff.
Anyway, and sorry son, but she watched 3 hours of cartoons while grandpa took a nap in his easy chair.
And I'm gonna make sure she gets at least 3 hours a day of cartoons everyday that she's here.
I just wish they were Popeye cartoons.
