Grandpa Diary #68

IMG_0845

Dear Kaylee,

You have been busy learning lately. Your mommy says you understand about 25 words so far. I say just so you know “Grandpa,” which you pronounce “Bapa,” is the most important. I know not everyone is going to agree to that!

You can’t believe how much fun it is to be around you. Not only do you bring pure joy, but you also are hilarious in your actions. You grunt when you climb up onto the couch because you hear us grunt when we are doing something strenuous, like lifting you up. You have a creeping type of walk where you move up and down as well as forward like you are sneaking up on someone. Then there are the head nods which signify,

“That’s right. I’ll take a cracker. Uh, huh, I’ll take some water.”

My favorite has to be when you grab a book and say, “Book, book,” and then climb up in my lap and plop down to page through the book with the most studious look on your face.

Or sometimes you are spending lap time doing stuff like trying to eat a watermelon whole and realizing the skin doesn’t taste like the fruit inside…

Kaylee, the lap is always available.

Love,
Grandpa
