Oldest grandson's culinary skills are improving. When I came home the other day, he was in the kitchen with my wife and her mother and they were cooking up a storm. The three of them spanned 4 generations and some 70 years but they found common ground in the kitchen. He has become a very good scratch baker. His younger brothers are usually eager to sample the fruits of his labor whether it be red velvet cake, muffins or chocolate chip cookies. The next project is a series of pies: apple, pumpkin and cherry. With scratch made pie crust.
Middle grandson is scary smart. According to his standardized tests last year, he reads at above a high school senior level. He's 9! I believe he has a photographic memory. If he sees something once, he has it forever. He is now reading a Ronald Reagan biography.
Youngest grandson is dealing with some kindergarten angst. His girlfriend refuses to marry him until he is eight. I commiserate as only another man can in such a situation.
