We have a new grandson. He was born a little over a week ago and our daughter and son-in-law were able to bring him home from the hospital. He's such a good baby. When I say that, I'm asked if there are "bad" babies. the answer is that there are not, but there ARE "Possessed" babies.
It is a joy to watch children parent and to learn things that have long been in our knowledge bank. Sometimes we forget that such knowledge is often hard-won. For example, getting up at night with a hungry baby can be described but if one really wants to know what it's like, one must experience it. First hand.
Should anyone ask, my grandchildren are beautiful/handsome, talented, and witty. It is a pleasure to stand in the shoes of a grandma with loving grandchildren. Smart, good-looking, quick grandchildren. Make that Superlative.

Attack
Last night the dog was attacked. Don't know what it was but the dog definitely respected it. She was barking up a storm and finally chose to go out and confront whatever was out in the dark. Whatever was there did NOT respect a small black (and loud) dog and she came in very humble.
In the thriller books and movies, the human would then go outside to "take care" of whatever evil lurked. Not me; I figure if it wouldn't go away with the ferocious barking that the dog did, I'm going to cede ownership of the front yard for the night.
Got up this morning to a newly-washed world and no foreigners in the front yard. This may reinforce the belief that if one ignores bad things, they'll go away. Hmm.
