OLD FOLKS-A LOVING GRANDPA..... A woman in a supermarket is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3 year-old grandson.

It's obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming fo sweets in the sweet aisle, cookies in the cookie aisle, and for fruit, cereal and pop in the other aisles.

Meanwhile, Granddad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice, "Easy,William, we won't be long, easy, boy."

Another outburst and she hears the granddad calmly say, "its okay, William, just a couple more minutes and we'll be out of here. Hang in there, boy."

At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart,

and Granddad says again in a controlled voice, "William, William,

relax buddy, don't get upset. We'll be home in five minutes; stay cool, William."

Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car.

She says to the elderly gentleman,” It’s none of my business,

but you were amazing in there. I don't know how you did it.

That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter

how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying

things would be okay. William is very lucky to have you as

his grandpa."

The grandfather says, "THANKS, BUT I'M WILLIAM.....THIS LITTLE BRAT'S NAME IS KEVIN!"

Re the pics... I have tried and tried ad nauseum to post the picture but it must be too many pixles and therefore too large of a file! I even tried 3 other pics but to no avail!

I will be posting online soon on the etsy site so if people want they can just look. Howya doing?
