When Selective Memory
Is a Wonderful Thing …
Back in mid-
February (was it only 2
weeks ago?), Carol and
I loaded up her SUV
and headed north to
Atlanta to visit with
our son Josh’s family
and for a little grand-
baby-sitting with our
youngest Wyatt. This
was really our first
opportunity for “quali-
ty” alone time with
him and he proved to
be possibly the easiest
of our entire grandkid brood of 2 girls and 3 boys.
The good thing about “grand-baby-sitting” is that one tends to blank out the
bad parts and only remember the good — much like childbirth (or so Carol
tells me.) And remarkably there were no emergency room visits, lost toddler
alerts or minor bumps and bruises.
First off, Wyatt’s a boy which means neither Carol nor I had to struggle with
making ponytails or putting together the perfect color-coordinated outfit for
Kenzie or Sophia. And whereas our 10-year-old Karter taxes my engineering
knowhow with complicated circuitry and computers and 6-year-old Caden
exhausts me physically with outdoor “monster-truck” driving and soccer prac-
tice, Wyatt at 18-months-old prefers blocks and playing ball with Gabby. (To be
honest golden doodle Gabby probably should have been getting $10 per hour
babysitting pay.) So with the exception of struggling to get down on the play-
room floor 20 times a day, we survived intact. (Memo to fitness trainers …
that’s the only exercise any grandparent needs to practice.)
And possibly the best thing at Wyatt’s age is he doesn’t communicate well
enough yet to rat us out — what happens with Papa Charles stays with Papa
Charles. If not, I am quite sure by now the Presidential
#$ & *# $& # Commission on Childhood Nutrition would have me in
its crosshairs. Between Chick-fil-A and Waffle House,
who says we can’t keep our youngest special boy
Did You Know... happy?
Now at home, with a great appreciation for our
calm and peaceful house, we are almost fully recov-
ered. Gabby, however, says she needs a few more
