So Todd's parents have been "fulltiming it" in New Mexico the last month, and we've been taking care of their yard, filling the bird feeders, etc.-just tending to their house. It's been a little confusing for Grady; he just doesn't get why Gran and Papa aren't there. "It's Papa's house, right?" he tells me. We keep telling him they are on vacation, but I guess when you're 2 everyday is a little like vacation. Here's a little snippet of a conversation I just had with him:
"Where is Madison?"
"school."
"Where is Tanner?"
"school." (He seems to understand the schedule now, but still misses them.)
"Where is Daddy?"
"work."
"Where is Aunt Patti?"
"the city." (!!-I was a little surprised he made that connection.)
"Where is Gran?"
**crickets**
"Where is Gran?"
"Gran's gone."
