    If you need to and can easily, take out the swim suit for me, as I keep one with J&J as well…that’s the only time (with grandchildren) that I get into the swim of things…

    Peace!

    I’m so glad they/you were packing for a trip, and no packing stuff away that they didn’t want/need anymore. They are way too young to give up Elmo quite yet.
