We took care of my mom and dad's place while they were gone for a week visiting my brothers. Doing Grandma's chores was the highlight of Little J's week. 'I'll fill the water can Mom!" He filled it so we could give water to the newly hatched baby ducks. Then he'd head into Grandma's house, grab an apple off the table and walk around checking up on everything while eating his apple. He'd walk past a patch of mint growing, rub it between his fingers and say to me " This smells good Mom, Papa told me. " Then as he was about to put some lemon balm in his mouth his sister yelled to him " No J! Don't eat leaves!" "Yes!" he replied, " It tastes yummy - it smells like lemon! Papa told me!!" He was right. He really remembers every word Papa tells him. Just wait until Papa tells him about watching the submarine races and being related to bigfoot!

He's such a cute little guy! How nice that he is a good helper too! :)
Yes, I think Papa telling him stories about his Big Foot relatives should be very interesting. What a hard worker Little 'J' is, just like his brother. What a sweetheart he is too, and what entertainment he provides... I predict his growing up years are going to provide a LOT of entertainment and challenge for you. He is so much fun.
