Nothing is more precious than having a little person you love want to walk beside you and "help". Those times spent with a grandchild who watches your every move and then repeats it somehow gives you hope that you have passed on a lesson or made a memory. Recently I taught my little 6 year old how to paint "the Joker". The Joker is one of his favorite bad characters in Batman. I was not sure he was even listening but I found out he was - the next day he painted his twin brother's face to be the Joker and assured him he knew what he was doing because he had practiced. I think this little guy in the painting will remember his great grandmother's gardening instructions every time he gardens in the future.
