Grandboy: Ow I pinched myself with this thing.

Me: O no. It looks ok, no blood. Did you learn something from that?

Grandboy: I be careful.

Me: Yep, sometimes you learn stuff when you get hurt. That’s part of life.

Grandboy: What is ‘life’?

Me: ‘Life’ is everything you’re doing and everything around you. Like coloring, eating, hugging mama,

Grandboy: Getting pinched.

Me: Yep, getting pinched. That’s part of life too. Life is (open arms wide) everything.

Grandboy (breaks into the song): Everything is AWESOME…

Yep. Everything is awesome.
