Here is my favorite pumpkin this Halloween. Which leads me to the question: why do grandparents go so ga-ga over their grandchildren? I am so glad that you asked! It is the sense of eternity...the continuation of the species, the gene pool...Grandchildren stroke our vanity. 

They bring back such fond memories of your own children when they were tiny, so very long ago. And if you are really lucky, they look like you. If they are really lucky, maybe they don't! Hahaha.
