I love how his smile lit up right away when you instructed him to "smile" seems like a papaws boy to me, he was hanging on your words. 😊

Thanks Bruce, this is nearly 10 years ago so I'd put him around 3yo :)

This is how I got hooked on Steam… my grandfather. He had me around them and talked about them and took me to museums as a small child and I was forever hooked.

I miss my Grandpa a lot!

Great memories Travis (https://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji106.png)

No wonder my Grandson Jimmy is hooked on steam -

Yes, no wonder indeed, after you "Hammered" it into him at a very early age!!!    ;c)

LOL Daniel.....he didn't really have much of a choice did he :)
