My friend and co-worker asked me whether # is my favorite grandchild yet.

I think I have to admit that he is one of my eight favorite grandchildren. But yes, he's right at the top of the list, along with # # is right behind them, only because at age 12, she shows a little less interest in communicating with granddad than she once did. # (age 6) is also right behind him, only because his dad doesn't put him on the phone or in our videochats often enough (which is also why I'm not as close to his younger brother and sister ... I just don't get enough contact with them).
