    Talked on the phone with #GS3 last night. I think he was telling me about the story in one of his books, but I only understood about 1/5 of what he said. Then #sonTwo told him to say goodnight and he thought he was being sent to bed early. I had to hang up and prepare for bed before the tantrum ended.

    #sonTwo reports that his wife and #GS3 are sick. #GS4 was sick a few days ago, but has recovered.

    Meanwhile, #Daddy_A reports that the stress of his wife's recent hospitalization aggravated one of his medical problems, and that the doctor is considering which medication to put him on ... for the rest of his life.

    Pricing baby car seats. The seats #GS3 and #GS4 use need to be replaced. GS3's seat is supposed to be usable up to age 8, but it appears something is damaged. GS4 is outgrowing his seat.

    I know what I'm ordering when my pay clears the bank.

    #sonTwo and his wife are using treats to reward desired behaviors by #GS3. Recently, the child earned a treat, and when he was presented with it, he said "I want four treats".

    Daughter-in-law: Don't you want to thank Grandpa for your new books?
    #GS3: (silence, while he's turning pages).
    DIL: Tell Grandpa thank you.
    GS3: Thank you. (in a very quiet voice)
    DIL: Can you say it louder?
    GS3: (silence, as he continues flipping through books and looking at pictures).

    #GS3 received some #Dinotrux books and a DVD. He was excited about it, but did not have the same characters he is used to seeing.

    Last night's #videochat was mostly about getting some time with #GS4. He's standing and working on walking and babbling at Grandpa. He believes that any time someone eats, he should eat also.

    #GS3 is at the "no, I don't like that" stage, so no matter what dinner is, he doesn't want it until he is enticed to try it. He was just starting to eat as we started the videochat.

    The younger child kept trying to go over to where his brother was sitting and eating, so he could try to eat with him.

    At the end, GS4 went to bed, GS3 decided he wasn't going to say goodbye. We hung up. GS3 started crying because he didn't get to say goodbye, so we reconnected, but he still refused to say it.

    Got to have a short #videochat with #GS3 and #GS4. The older child was unhappy at first because they turned off his cartoon. Then he felt better and told me about one of his Dog Man books.

    And apparently, his books about dinosaur-construction equipment hybrids are called Diggersaurus.

    We're going to finish our chat tomorrow, since the younger child needed to go to bed.

    #GS3 was just talking about a long neck excavator. That may just be his name for it.

    His book is about dinosaur-construction equipment hybrids. Two great things that go great together, like peanut butter and chocolate.

    Whatever "Montessori toys" are, #GS3 and #GS4 have been having a blast since yesterday.

    I expect that they are old-style wooden blocks and things like the rings on the vertical rod.

    Whatever they are, I had them shipped and they love them.

    I remember “Curious George” from way back. Apparently, the books inspired a TV show, because #GS3 was telling me about George and the man in yellow in our #videochat. I will have to look at the books 📚 and see whether they are something I can buy him.

    During our #videochat, #GS4 grabbed #sonTwo's Diet Coke and spilled it all over himself. Prior to that, #GS3 felt that the younger child was competing for attention that only he deserved.

    Grandpa must make sure that both of them know they are loved and that there is enough attention for both of them.

    Daughter-in-law: Can you smile for Grandpa?

    #GS3: No!

    DIL: Why not? He got you the sand. Can you say "thank you" to Grandpa?

    GS3: (Not looking up from his playtime) Thank you, Grandpa.

    A few days from now, when we have our next #videochat, he'll be reading one of his books to me and holding up a toy to tell me about it.

    New videos: #GS3 playing with “kinetic sand”:{https://kineticsand.com/} and a toy bulldozer. Daughter-in-law is smart enough to get him a big plastic container for playing with the sand. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophobic_sand

    #sonTwo and his wife called and said that the planetarium projector is likely to be #GS3’s favorite gift of the year. He spent an hour last night before bed watching stars ✨ and planets 🪐 , then got out of bed and brought the projector into his bed.

    So far, no feedback from #A1 … they may be holding the kids’ items for Christmas.

    #GD2 contacted me directly to tell me that she liked her gifts 🎁, but no details.

    Reportedly, #GS3 is excited about his new toy firetruck. The only way he could have liked it better is if it came with dinosaur firefighters in space suits.

    (Likes dinosaurs, space, and trucks / heavy equipment.)

    I'm surprised it wasn't appealed. Even though the state capital is in Cole County, there's got to be a state supreme court.

    In the meantime, I suspect that #GD1 and #GD2 will continue to be home schooled because of such idiocy. I know it is still a few years away, but I will recommend the same for #GS3 and #GS4 when they approach school age.

    We held tonight's #videochat too late for #GS4 ... he was asleep. We truncated it because #GS3 was also getting sleepy.

    I blame software updates and required reboots for this.

    #GS3 is very talkative tonight. And excited.

    We talked about the weather, about rabbits, and some topic that I couldn’t understand.

    #GS3 got his dinosaur sweatshirt today. He got to wear it as he helped #sonTwo with the leaf blower.

    This kid loves machinery. They probably would have gotten more work done with a simple rake, but the boy wouldn't have enjoyed trying to use a rake as much.
