It may be funny now but...

As my one year old grandson hid behind the chair hiding what he was holding, he really thought he was invisible. Even though he was squeezing a squeaky dog toy that made him giggle. I knew he couldn't hurt himself with it so I jokingly said you bring that to grandma, which made him merely squish further against the chair as if he would not be seen. Then once again you could hear the squeaking noise followed by laughter. The sound of a child laughing is precious. I would again jokingly tell him to bring it to me. About the third time my grandaughter came over and said he isn't listening to you and he is hiding from you. She knew if the older ones didn't do what I said they would get in trouble. She didn't understand why he wasn't being made to bring it to me. I explained to her that he was a baby and I didn't really care about him hiding it was funny to me that he thought he was truly invisible and that the sound he was making couldn't be heard either. She looked at me all confused about it.  I sure hope she doesn't run and hide when I tell her to come here next time expecting me to think it's funny. It may be funny when a one year old does it but when you are older you really know you aren't going to be invisible.
