Learning to Parent

As Tim is picking up a fussy Van from his crib, I'm listening to the following dialogue:

Grandma: This kid needs to learn it's a hard world.
Tim: But (said with a sadness)... he's only 4 weeks old. He's so little.
Grandma: He has it too easy right now.
Tim: Shouldn't it be easy? He can't even wipe his own butt. And he's so cute.
Grandma: He is cute.

Baby wins, every time.

Baby should always win! :) Which grandma is visiting? Can't wait to see another picture. I know new baby life is busy though so I am patient.

My mom came to visit and help us for 2 weeks... it was fantastic. I wanted to keep her here forever. Completely saved my sanity when Tim got sick and wasn't allowed to help with the V-man.
