Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

My grandson and I had a good day.  For the first time, he fell asleep while I was giving him the bottle, and I let him sleep in my arms.  He held my finger with his hand the whole time.  When we were strolling, he pulled forward to sit up more, and was looking at everything around him.  He usually falls asleep in the stroller, but he was curious and taking it all in.  I hadn't seen him in only four days, but he's changed, and relating to the world in different ways and absorbing all he can.  He had a couple of bouts of talking to me, and though I have no idea what he's telling me, I appreciate the fact that he wants to tell me.  He knows that is what it is to be human.  What a blessing I'm having this experience with my grandchildren:  seeing again what life is about and how amazing and precious it is!
