Our trip to California gave us the opportunity to re-acquaint ourselves with our nephew, Isaac, AKA Bubbies. I've loved him since the day I first saw him but this trip solidified his status as the cutest, most lovable little boy ever to walk the face of the earth. Sorry, Garret ;)
He has his moments, though. Rebecca would put him to bed, and about ten minutes later, he'd emerge from their room, saying, "There's no problem!" At that point we'd usually discover he'd locked himself out of the door—a door that only Rebecca knew how to jimmy open. One particular night, Rebecca was out and I was babysitting. I heard the tell-tale, "There's no problem!" and rushed to the stairs that leads down to Isaac's room. He was standing in the doorway with one hand snaked around the door, holding the handle. "No, no, no!" But it was too late. Looking me right in the eye, he smiled, turned the lock, and shut the door. "There's no problem!"
But how can you stay mad at someone who plaintively tells you, "I can't, honeybunny," or who prepares to bless the food by folding his arm and asking each person at the dinner table, "And can you pray and can you pray and can you pray?"Here's solid proof that he's pretty much the cutest boy ever: Isaac singing "Slippery Fish."

I LOVE how sincerely he said, "Oh no!" in the fish song. And how perfect is it to say "There's no problem!" when he locks himself out. Wonderful child.
How is it, that of all the millions of children born into this world every year, the two most beautiful, loving, adorable, and talented happen to be my grandchildren? Amazing!
