Welcome to the Ann Tucker Blog!

Welcome to my personal blog. Thanks to my son for building this neat blog page. I decided I wanted to give my thoughts and words to the world and hope they have some meaning and memories to grandparents (and others) everywhere. I am a retired civil servant (35.5 years with the Department of the Air Force), mother of two and grandmother of five. My maiden name was Scaling and I was married to Tilford N. Tucker. I raised and put two great children through college so I have a lot of experiences to build on. After retirement I became a webmaster (working for my son) for some of our family websites: ShaggyDuck
Have a fun time and a great day, bookmark this site and come back often!!!!

The Drawing


My grandson turned 5 years old in September, but is big for his age and has been riding a bike without training wheels for over a year. I saw an ad where a car parts place is having a drawing for a really neat bike. I filled out the form for my grandson and told him we were going to go put his form in a drawing for the bike. I sometimes forget he is just a little kid since he acts bigger (being around his teenage sisters and their friends). I took him to the store, and since I could see the man at the counter, I waited in the car. I gave him the form and said go give this to the man at the counter and say thank you. He went in like a big guy, handed the man the form, said thank you and came back and got in the car. I noticed as he was coming out of the store that he sure got a good look at the bike that was sitting close to the door of the store. When he got in the car I asked "what did the man say?" and he told me the " the man said thank you but he didn't give me the bike!" Oops, guess I didn't explain about a drawing good enough so we started all over again. Some things are a little hard to explain to a little kid - sort of like "where does Santa live and how does he get the reindeer to fly?"

This is so cute and funny. I hope he understands or you are going to end up buying a new bike!
