My daughter and her partner are still very busy with their new build house. Unfortunately, Murphies' law is still applicable and things go wrong. So Sjoerd, my husband and I are often asked to take care of little Sam, our grandson. We do it with a lot of love, but when he is back with his parents we are pretty tired and I did not write much on Steemit last week. Not at all to be honest.
Sam is a sweet little boy who (thank heaven) sleeps for about two hours at noon, and when he is awake, he is happy as always.
So once again I decided to make memories for the future, for my grandson Sam, and I post what he did the last time he was here.
He no longer likes bread, which he used to like, but fruit is his favorite. I was not entirely aware of this new situation, so I gave him a sandwich (raisin bread, I thought he would like the raisins) and also a plate with a sliced pear.
This is how it went:
He walks towards the table and sees the two plates.
Without hesitation, he pushes the plate with the sandwich far away.
He goes to the small cupboard with lots of photos. Takes the picture with his parents, goes back to the table and eat the pear as fast as he can.
Then he goes to the plate with the sandwich and starts to feed Grandpa Sjoerd.
Piece by piece Sam brings the whole sandwich to Sjoerd to great amusement of both Sam and myself.
I hope that I can show him this post when he is a bit older. I wonder how he will find his younger self.
Another two weeks to go before his parents (and he of course) move to the new house. Then we return to France, to peace and quiet! (But how must fun it is to have him around these days!)
Have a nice day,
Clio
Well, at least he has a very good knowledge of sharing!
These are precious moments to remember especially since you guys are not always in the neighborhood!
But yeah, tiring is the right word for the end of the day! Hopefully murphies law will pass fast and you guys can do some nice stuff all together!

He does share but until now only things he doesn't like himself:)

Awwww......what a gorgeous little guy. Sweet sweet face. I love his independence.
I know how exhausted you can be after they go to bed or home. That's why motherhood is for the young, right? lol.
I thought it very adorable that he had a photo of his mommy and daddy on the table while he was eating his fruit.
You have him for 2 weeks? I'm so jealous....I hardly get to see my grandkids.
Lovely post @clio.

Thank you very much @countrygirl. In June we will leave for France and I will not see him for about two months.
So I'm glad I see him a lot now. I also have to build up memories!

Kids can be so funny sometimes. Love the photos of Sam feeding the sandwiches to his grandpa! I would be funnier if he offered one and then ate one. lol But grandkids do tire us out. I am always glad to see mine but happy when they go back to their parents so I can rest! lol

She is right. But it is a lot of fun to have him a lot these days.

Good luck getting him to view ‘baby’ pictures anytime in the next 20 years. He is likely to be quite busy living in the moment.

I think so too, but it would be nice if he visits his (then very old grandparents) to view the messages I have written about him.
It gives us something to do and talk about :)

Beautiful story and great photos, my friend. It's great to see Sam so big and watch as he eats and tries to feed his grandfather, it's great and admirable. You are right, grandchildren are fine and we will always treat them with great love! Thank you Clio
