My Son , Family , Memories

Hello my  friends , 
I saw this  cute cartoon in the Sunday paper (3/8/14) ,  I have to share it with you .
It made me think of  my son when he  moved in his  first home  with  his wife  and kids .
When my son was  a  small child  and as  all parents  know  kids  gets into everything  and  it was always  stop it  or  don't  do that  or  get down  from there  , put you  pants  back on  . As parents  you all know  what a handful  your  kids are . 
My son was about  5 or  6 at the time  when he decided  he was  going to move out  and I asked  did he want me to help him pack  and the little devil said  yes . Put  some things in a pillow  case   and  left him on the  back steps .  About  20 minutes  later  I heard  him coming  back inside , my dear Rosa  said  well he's hungry  and I said  yes .  
I heard something in our  bedroom  and went in to  check   and  by dang  that boy was taking my clothes out the  drawers  and putting his  in, I  asked  , son , what are  you doing  and he  looked at me  and said , I'm moving  in here  and  you can have my  room .  I said  son  it  do not work that way  and  I will be glad  when you  have kids of  your own . 
He has four  and it  pleases  me to no  end  to watch him cope .
This  incident  happen  when he  moved in his first home   and they was potting training  the baby  boy , that kid loved watching  the  water going  down the  toilet . He's a smart  little  guy, he would watch  them and he  learn how to pull the level to make  the toilet flush . 
One boy is playing in the water , his wife is  trying to scoop it up , food is  burning  on the stove  , the  youngest  girl  is  holding the screaming baby boy  that started all this  mess (laughing  my  butt off) .
Now  you want to know where  the oldest  girl is, well dear friends  she learned well from me  , she is  hiding in the toilet . 
And  you say  where  am I ,  I am  behind the door  just chuckling . I told him that this would happen .
Now  I am sure  all grandparents  can relate  to  this .
Just  one  word of  wisdom  : Kids  listen  when  your  parents say  you will get pay back . 
My son always asked me  why my hair was  white  , well he is beginning to  find out  .
A proud  grand-poppa
