Hand Washing

After dinner each night, Uncle Gramps would always jump up to help wash Amelia's hands when she was finished. Since she's so often finished before I am, I was grateful for the unexpected time to eat my dinner while it was still hot. I was pretty impressed with his offer... then tickled when I finally realized it was self preservation.They had just re-painted all the walls in the house! He wasn't taking any chances.

He's thinking, "Kid, you're not getting fingerprints on my walls!"
