The Learning Tree. First time on a road trip with Grandpa.
Grandpa, I Have to Pee
by Esther Brown
“Grandpa, I have to pee”.
“Can you wait?”
“Nooooo”. She wails.
“OK.” Grandpa pulls into a likely looking park, but no, there are no little girl restrooms.
Munchkin looks desperate.
“Grandpa, I don’t see the bathroom!”
“It is over there behind the tree.”
She runs. Looks around the tree. “Grandpa, it isn’t behind the tree!”
“Maybe behind that other tree?”.
“No, it isn’t behind this one either”.
“Go back to the first one. It is behind the first tree like I said”.
An older lady nearby says, “Her first time?”
“Yep.”
Munchkin figures it out, and all is well.

Grandpa taught our grand daughter lots of things...to love the outdoors, trees, road trips and adventuring. Along with peeing outside. Yeah Grandpa. Morgan was 7 when she died. I am starting on a collection of short stories about her for her brothers.
