Can they be trusted?

[reynardo]

My little boy, my very beloved da_norvegicus, takes off in 5 minutes to Japan, in the company of his maternal grandparents.

When first my mother suggested the holiday to go and visit my little baby brother (who happens to be 6'3" and 35 years old), I was a little concerned that my son would be a burden on them, that he would cause irritation and not take their age into account.

Having just got back from the airport, I'm very very glad he's with them. They had completely forgotten about the rules for liquids, and we had to buy them an additional bag when we realised that they still had their shampoo with them. My father, a very clever man, is starting to lose his memory. And they both need a young body to carry the luggage for them.

My boy will be fine. I just hope my parents will be.

*hugs* He will be fine. Your parents will be fine. He's a good boy and knows how to be sensible when the situation requires it. You, miss, worry too much. *squish*

I assume that since he will have no need for it, he didn't take his mobile phone? *snerk*

My parents are shadows of their former selves, too.

Your son should be fine, and his prescence helpful.

He'll be fine, and I'm sure he'll be a great help to your parents, as he's a nice, kind boy and I know he's likely to make their life a fair bit easier.

Also, YAY GIFTS!
