All hail the sippee cup

Look, Grandma, no drops, no spill, no muss, no fuss. Obviously the sippee cup was invented by a grandparent, or at least a very intelligent person, or perhaps I just said the same thing twice, which I do regularly.







Anyway, Doris and I had the grandkids here last weekend, which was the cause of much excitement, some of it unplanned.







We did some gardening. . .






and planted some, um, trees (??)











re-chalked the sidewalk. . .







and . . . well, not sure what we were doing here other than having fun.






 
A couple of cogent observations:

  • The Lord was very wise when He determined to give children to the very young.
  • I did not realize I was this old.
  • I can keep up if I have thirteen hours of sleep a night, plus a long nap during the day.
  • The United States energy problem is solved as soon as someone figures out how to harness a five-year old to a power-generating treadmill.
  • Just like children, sippee cups are a gift from the Lord.
  • My wife has the patience of Job, the gentleness of a saint, and the wisdom to always know what to do when the little one stuffs a bean up his nose.
