New name: Grandfather, Grampa, Grandad

My daughter had a baby boy on Tuesday, so now I have a new name. "Grandad" will be the most common choice, although I'm also going to teach him to call me 'Dziadek/Dziadku" as well. It's hard to believe that my 'baby' had a baby! 

Now I'm at work, trying to focus on testing my computer code. It's a challenge, because being Grandad is much more interesting. 

I wonder how long it will be until he learns to laugh and learns to call me "Grandad". I wonder if he'll enjoy sitting in my lap while I read to him, or taking a walk in the park with me. I wonder if he'll like music, or maybe play a musical instrument. So many questions and possibilities. Only time will tell. 

What's that? Must have been my imagination. I thought I heard someone call my name!
