Grandaddy Hal

My mom and I took Zadie to get her follow-up flu shot today and she weighed 19 lbs 4 oz.

I really love this video of my dad and Zadie. It's really sweet!

Zadie has always loved her Granddaddy Hal. In fact, he was the first person to elicit her belly laugh when she was only a few months old. She particularly likes his singing, which you'll see in the video. My dad used to sing me these very same songs. And, of course, he always told me that he taught Willie Nelson how to sing and I got in huge arguments with people, notably Pat Stender, insisting that he DID teach Willie Nelson how to sing.

This video is totally awesome. Grt job to the camerawoman to sneak in on this candid footage. I love the authenticity of Hal mixing in the seal training songs. Zadie is beautiful.
