Grandfathers and Little Boys -- What a Combo!

This picture was taken in February, 2011. There were eighteen of us at our home in Glenburn when we celebrated my Mom's birthday. That, of course, became a photo-op for me!

Samuel was busy and I just couldn't get a full face shot of him. Well, David decided to give me a hand -- two hands, actually-- as you can see here!

A couple of weeks later, their Dad and Mom went on vacation and the guys stayed with us. Samuel was on his hands and knees, playing around his grandfather's chair. He was being a dog, woofing and running around on all fours. So, of course, his grandfather was telling him he was a good dog, petting him on the head, etc.

At the same time, Wayne was getting ready to go to the store. He had a grocery list and was adding items to it as we talked. Suddenly the "doggie" grabbed the grocery list. Grampie said, "hey, don't take off with my list. I need that!" A couple of minutes later, little Sammy dog brought the list back with an addition to the list: "DOG FOOD". We chuckled and Grampie left.

When he came back with his groceries, Wayne began to unpack them and put them away. All of a sudden he said, "Sam! Here's the dog food!" To Sam's delight, it was a package of "Cheez-Its". What a happy, little doggie we had at that point!

Grandfathers and little boys! They are quite a combination, always good for a chuckle and adding a little sunshine to our day.
