Grandchildren: When It Gets Very Quiet...!
See, I am the type of person that does three things at a time but cannot hear an explosion in the same room. The world can fall down around me and I will not notice. It is a special talent. But when it comes to my grandchildren, there are thing that get my attention right away. Total silence is one of those things.

DeleteI remember when my granddaughter was just over a year old. She busied herself on my lanai. Boy was I ever in for a surprise. She had taken all of the plants out of the containers - lots of dirt everywhere. She didn't even look guilty :-) I'll always remember that day with a smile.
