I have as much authority as the Pope, I just don't have as many people who believe it. -George Carlin-
My Damian is an absolute joy to be around. I am still amazed at how well behaved he is. I don't just say this because he's my grandson. Oh no. I was a baby and I know what cranky and moody is, believe me. I see other babies and they just seem crankier or fussier than Damian is. I am honestly still amazed at how happy and well tempered he is.
Today Sandi and I decided to go pick him up and kidnap him for the day. We went for a walk along the boardwalk, stopped in the mall for a treat, went up to the library and had lunch in the park and then walked back along Queen Street (on the shady side, of course). He smiled and giggled all day.
We played in the park for a while after he ate. I threw him up in the air for a while and actually managed to catch him at least twice! (kidding....kidding. I would never drop precious cargo like that). We played Superman and peek-a-boo, and I taught him how to do a proper raspberry, and then how to do it with food in his mouth...hahahahaha. Take that Steph!
When he started getting tired, he wanted Grandpa. He wanted to fall asleep in my arms and on my shoulder. Yeah... I'm THAT important. More to the point though, Damian is THAT important, and more so.
So there it was... The entire Universe asleep in my arms.
What more can you say.
A wonderful day spent with my wife and my grandson, on a walkabout in fantastic weather. How can you top that?
Pax, all.
