Ah, the Grandson – he is learning wisely

At 2 1/2, he’s learning quick – he knows his way around TMEW’s iPad like nobody’s business.  It’s Sesame Street all the time – he’s in love (like many his age) with Elmo.  Elmo brushing teeth. He gets his own toothbrush out and brushes in time to the music.  And at one point, each and every time he watches it, Michelle Obama comes in view.  As I write this, he’s doing what TMEW noticed a bit ago…

…yes, he turns her it off.  Absolutely NO prodding by either me or TMEW to do so – Bwahahahahahaha!

Speaking of the Grandson – tomorrow is going to be a great day…(although not for the greatest of reasons) as TMEW and I will end our 2 1/2 year journey to formally adopt him.  We’ll be with the Judge tomorrow for a quick ceremony and the paper signing.  From being empty nesters to being “parents” 30 years down the line is not what I would have imagined (especially as I had told both the Eldest and the Youngest that under no circumstances did I want to raise their children).  But here we are and tomorrow will be.

Anti-climatic?  Most likely.  No, no fireworks and whoop-de-does – probably just a contented smile on my mug when all is said and down.

And then back to a new normal that is already 2 1/2 years long – I can’t wait!
