No, this old chatty woman kept looking at me. So I put my head down like this and pretended I was senile when she looked over.

Grandma and I at my first Christmas, 1987

Christmas at Grandma’s, 1990.
When she lived in that house we would feed squirrels in her big driveway and go for walks around the block. She taught me to tie Pop to his chair when he napped. I would tie him up and say ‘Pop’s stupid’. I think she told me to say that, too. Pop thought I didn’t like him for years after. Grandma would always laugh.
She never admitted to training me to do this, but how else would a 3-year-old be able to tie knots that would keep a (very fit) 60-year-old man stuck to his chair?
