One year when my son was in high school he was especially full of himself. I snagged him to help decorate. Making no complaints, he offered to do the mantel, using the traditional garland, candles, sleigh and elves, paying careful attention to his Grandma’s hand-made Santa, the special centerpiece she always looked for. His enthusiasm was refreshing. The extended family had gathered, and of, was admiring Grandma’s lovely Santa gracing the mantel yet another year. That’s when it became apparent he’d made especially, good use of a giant red and white striped candy cane, enhancing Santa’s holiday charm. I hope he has five boys just like himself!
Haha! What did Grandma have to say? Good one, sonny boy!

Fortunately Grandma had been dead several years so we didn’t think the shock killed her, but I can’t promise she wasn’t speaking naming in her grave!

Your son sounds much like mine! And I wished a similar thought. He now has three little boys. I think my wish may be granted. :-O
