Grandmacare

Busy working at Grandmacare

Grandpa Jim is sharing his love of Coke with his Grandson


Grandmacare is the term I use when people ask who watches Oliver during the day but I guess I need to add in the Grandpa's too. Whenever Grandpa Jim walks into the room Oliver lights up with a big smile. There has been several times where Grandpa Jim has been left home with Oliver for a few hours. Both Grandpa and Oliver have managed to survive. Oliver did have a diaper on backwards one of those days but he didn't seem to mind. 
Grandma and Grandpa Salm have been watching him one day a week and Oliver has been able to do a bit of farming. He was able to ride in the buddy seat of the tractor with Grandma Katie during the harvesting. He also got to watch Grandpa Keith drive the combine. He was sure a happy boy being with his Grandparents and observing the harvest.
Erik and I will often talk about how blessed we are to have our parents living close enough that they can be a part of Oliver's life. It's comforting to know that when I walk up to the door to drop Oliver off in the morning someone who loves him will open the door to greet him.
