Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I babysat my youngest grandchild last night and it went quite well.  I had foolishly brought a book, and that never got opened, of course.  He was asleep when they left and woke up as they drove away.  We did the play mat, walked around the house, rocked, and finally I gave him a bottle and he slept for 35 minutes.  Then we bounced, rocked, walked and the whole time I sang to him.  He's cooing a lot, and trying to communicate, and much more interested in the world around him.  We stared out the window at a tree for a long time.  It's very meditative, being with a baby, and you have to let go of plans, as you are truly at the whim of his lordship.  Once you understand that he is in charge, everything goes more smoothly.  Schedule?  Only made to toy with you.  In baby world, everything is fluid.
