When my oldest grandson was just five years old he was quite the reader! He was quite effective at sounding out words and found great joy at being able to sit down with a book and read what all those words had to say! This of course, made me a happy grandma as I want my grandsons to love reading! It also gave me some unexpected opportunities to see how my grandson thought . . . and a few good laughs as well!
One day we were at the store and saw a plaque with an "interesting" saying on it. I held it up for him to read . . . which he did. The plaque said, "Grandparents; so easy to operate even a child can do it!" He read it and then said, "This is true! At least for grandma, that is! All I have to do to get what I want from you is to look cute and be polite!"
While I knew he had me firmly wrapped around his little finger, I didn't realize he thought it was "that" easy to "operate" grandma!
For the record; I do say, "no" if I have to, but if I do not have to say, "no", I do not because, well . . . I'm grandma . . . and apparently I'm "easy to operate"!
What about you? Are you, "So easy to operate!!"?
