True story: I get a text from “Lailah” at around noon today, asking if she can babysit me at 3pm. Of course I say yes. Picked her up and drove home to my place, got the wagon, and we walked to the park down the street, dragging the wagon behind us. She takes my hand and holds it most of the way there.
We get to the park, and usually we’re the only ones there, but today, there was a 5-6 yr old girl playing, along with her dad sitting on a bench. The girl is near the slides which is what Lailah usually likes to play on. I give Lailah a gentle nudge, and tell her to tell this girl her name. Lailah says to the new girl, something to the effect of: “I’m Lailah…and, this is GranPa”.
(she’s turning three in ~two weeks, but apparently she already knows how to do “introductions”!)
Smart. Beautiful. Polite.
[but also Sassy sometimes – LOL.]
