My Dad was always outnumbered. It was him and the male cat, Tom, against me, Mom & Jennifer. He didn't stand a chance. But when the grandchildren started coming, they were all boys. Now there are four of them -- all boys. The first two were mine - Jarrett and Jeremy. Jeremy was only 2 when Grandpa passed away, but Grandpa always had interesting things to say.
First of all, he would always tell me that he knew how tired I was because of raising two boys. I would try to balance his checkbook for him and would be constantly interrupted. Grandpa would tell my boys - "Let your Mama rest!". He also always said, "You have two fine boys!" He was very proud of them and thought they were good looking, smart and very athletic -- just like him. :-)
