I had the youngest grandson over early on Christmas morning........

[Wayne in BC]

He is coming 4 and was totally pumped! Ripping apart presents and bouncing off the walls, not in any particular order but i did my best to help his folks by slipping him another chocolate now and then

We bought him a Nerf Gun which launches 3 inch foam cylinders with suction cup ends. Now they have two Cats at home from our our old Queen and our Tom, so i told him that Kitties liked to be hunted with his lil gun

Instantly he headed towards our old Tom who really hates kids and will avoid them at all costs......zing! whack! Zoom! Cat is gone and Grandpa is in deep doo doo Herself thinks it is funny and so does my stepson but the kid's Mama is kinda humorless that way. She didn't say much but i got a "look", good luck with that when he gets home

It is said that grandkids are Gods gift to for you not killing your own kids That lil guy sorta dotes on this granpa and me on him and his mama doesn't quite know what to do.........hee hee, i got a few ideas from Fred's interactions with his neighborhood kids, thanks Fred

Except for the ones in Ottawa... but 4000 miles is too far to be able to do too much 'teaching' :

Good present, Wayne! Kids are a lot like potholes, a nuisance when they are small, and when they get big, they wreck your car!
Good luck with your payback!
