It was after two when we finally got to bed and we were still groggy when we got up, but we were so eager to see our just arrived grandson that we ignored fatigue and started interacting with him as soon as he woke.
As haggard as we were, you were that lively, engaging with the puzzles, blocks, figurines and other toys we had been collecting for you, particularly the mechanical and magnetic. If it whirred, squeaked, flashed, snapped, it caught your fancy. Small battery candles in a box with glass walls, and wall lights switched on and off, 'Daytime', 'Night time.' Tea parties. Books galore with all associated animal noises.
You're at a fascinating age, building your basic vocabulary and grammar with every conversation. Your soft voice is often affect-less especially when responding to yes or no questions, probably because your mind is occupied elsewhere. When making requests or reports on his or other's actions--'Granmere, you do it.'--direct and clear.
Fully focused until you say you're finished, you're burning fuel at rocket ship rates. We're triple - teaming you, and when the bright light of your attention is beaming away from me, I feel mine dimming. 'Look, Granpere's asleep.' Caught.
