The how-to's of surviving parenting the second-time around.

GrandPa 

He is there 
 always 
 patiently waiting 
  to kiss away my tears 
 and fix broken toys 
 and teach me to ride without training wheels 
 He is smart 
 smarter than anyone 
 and he always knows 
 the answers to my questions 
 No matter how many times I ask him 
He is fun 
 and knows 
 so many games 
that no one ever heard of before 
 like "super hero space alien fire rescue tigers" 
He is good 
 and helps people 
especially little people 
 who need lots of help 
 Even when he gets in trouble with Grandma 
He is love 
He gives it 
 without question 
or expectations 
Just  because he is my Grandpa
