During a Skype Call the day after we returned from our recent visit to DC, we heard our son, in an aside to his eldest daughter, say; "Don't Pour Nuts on your Toes!" The interchange made me laugh and I just had to stop and write the comment down on a handy little post it note.
Aah, Parenting! Unless you are the primary babysitter, the joy of being a grandparent is that all you have to do is have fun with and love the little ones. You don't have to worry about the small things like the children pouring nuts on their toes.
Please don't be mad at me for sharing this bit. It was pretty funny and I'm just writing this so that you can laugh at it too. It's always good to laugh at the ridiculous. And the truth is, if you look for it, there is a lot of ridiculous in life. Especially when we are most serious,
