A change of pace
The boys and I were having one of those days. You know the kind I mean. We were all ill and biting each others heads off. There was a lot of me yelling at the kids to stop yelling in the house, or at each other. So when my dad called to ask if we wanted to come by, I thought the change of scenery (and company) might do us good. And as usual, an afternoon at GaGa and Dado's was just what the doctor ordered.
Dad taught Grayson two guitar chords (a momentous occasion in my family). He learned A and D, so technically he could play a song. I actually know one that is basically A and D the whole way through. Grayson was pretty proud of himself, let me tell ya'!
Then Grant got to help cook dinner. We tried to get the boys to help us shuck the corn, but we did it outside, and there are just way too many distractions out there. Grant always wants to know what's going on in the kitchen, though, so he was more than happy to help when we got to that part. We let him "wash" the corn (it was more like splashing it around under the faucet).
Then he got to put it in the pot, and fill the pot up with water. You could just tell how big he felt, getting to help out like that.
We ended up having a great afternoon after a very rocky morning. Thank God for grandparents who care enough to brighten our day.
