GRANDMAS ARE SMART

(As it turns out neither of us are grandparents but this is a charming little vignette that I thought it worth sharing. Of course it has probably been published here before. lol)

I was out walking with my grandson. He picked up something off of the ground
and started to put it in his mouth. I took the item away from him and I
asked him not to do that.

“Why?” my grandson asked.

“Because it’s been on the ground; you don’t know where it’s been, it’s
dirty, and probably has germs. Sometimes germs make little boys sick and not
feel good” I replied.

At this point, my grandson looked at me with total admiration and asked,
“Grandma, how do you know all this stuff? You are so smart.”

I was thinking quickly and said to him, “All Grandmas know stuff. It’s on
the Grandma Test. You have to know it, or they don’t let you be a Grandma.”

We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but he was evidently
pondering this new information. “Oh…I get it! He beamed, so if you don’t
pass the test you have to be the Grandpa.”

“Exactly,” I replied with a big smile on my face.
