sweet email from Grandpa Dan H.

Boy that daughter of yours sure is cute. I got to watch her for a while this morning while grandma caught up on a little sleep. We ate, we played, she pooped bigtime, I cleaned her up, she ate some more, watched me eat, watched me brush my teeth, watched me shower, I wiped her nose, she watched me get dressed. We had a great time together. What an inquisitive kid.
Happy to watch her anytime.
Luv U.
Dan
