Have I told you lately how adorable my grandson is?
After dinner tonight, he wanted 'Ga' to chase him around the dining room table and, of course, I did! I wore out MUCH faster than he did, but I kept going because he was laughing and squealing as only a toddler can! He joined me in the kitchen while I was cleaning up from dinner and very methodically and systematically handed me, one by one, all the storage containers in the cupboard--and there are a LOT! I pretended as though I didn't know he wanted to give me one and he'd call out, "Ga!"with every tupperware lid.
He likes Tom to get down on the floor with him so he can climb up in his lap and 'knock him down.' He must've knocked him down a hundred times! He's at that perfect age to delightedly play the same thing over and over again. He never tires of the game (whatever it happens to be!) and I never tire of seeing him play.
When it was time to go, he reached out for each one of us in turn and gave us big hugs. Sigh. . .I love that little boy!!
What a blessing it is to be a Grandma! And won't it be fun to have TWO to chase before we know it!?

His energy bounces off my Mac screen! I can see why you're so smitten. I can't imagine how much fun you'll have when you have two of them! Wonderful indeed.
When my daughter was about four years old, she would go through my tupperware cupboard every morning and place everything on the kitchen table. She would way "Mommy, can I make coffee for Ted?" Ted was a little polar bear. That story reminded me of that.
It is wonderful to be a Grandmother and it is a privilege to be part of these little lives! Blessings upon blessings with your new one on the way!
I'm thankful to have met you in time to share this joy!
