Day 741 Grandad day

19th August 2019

I went to visit Damian, but really I wanted to see how my newest grandson was doing.

Little George is four months, he was laying in his rocker, going like the clappers with a wonderful smile on his face.

Ethan, the older brother was being a little shit.

I held my tongue, as no one would appreciate any advice I would give directly, so I tried the old trick of diversion. This calmed him down quite a bit, making it a fun time.

I took him out into the garden encouraging him to climb trees, falling out of them is character building, and it would give him something real to cry about.

I’d thought about it, but couldn’t do, when he’s engaged in an activity you can see his little brain working. Most things he does entails throwing or hitting something, but he does it with pure innocence.
