Calling all Grammys & GrampCs

As Drew gets older, we are seeing a new trend - he favors his grandfathers (which he has three). There are several theories, but that's for another blog entry.

Over this past week, I called Grammy to see how things were going. Drew who was standing next to me, says "Hi Grammy" in the background. That's when I hold the phone for him, and he has his customary conversation with Grammy. Of course there is some coaching on my part as to what Drew should say, but he is starting to respond to things he's hearing on the other end.

We sign off with Grammy, and not even two minutes later Drew starts whining about needing to talk to GrampC. It was a quite pitiful whine in fact. So I call back and Drew gets to chat with GrampC, for which the conversation was rather interesting. At one point there was some whining about wanting to play with their dog Mollie, and how he can't wait to see GrampC (he's at their house this weekend for a sleepover while we attend a friend's wedding in San Francisco).

This discussion with GrampC was yet another sign my "baby" is turning into a big boy. Not only are phone conversations becoming less one-sided, but he knows when he doesn't talk to everyone on the other end. It's the small things that make you realize how fast time flies.
