i never knew rich's grandpa moore, but i've heard tons of stories about him and really wish that i would have had the chance to know him better. one of my favorite photos ever, is of grandpa holding his wife's hands while grandma squeezes him from behind - i think it's just so telling of their relationship and how much they love each other, and a little bit of their silly, playful sides. rich affectionately tells me over and over fun stories of things they did with grandma and grandpa and some of the funny things grandpa used to say. like, "move over bacon, here comes something leaner", when he wanted to sit next to you on the couch, or "save your money". and, "you gotta hold your tongue just right", when it was necessary to concentrate real hard on something. rich was listening i guess, because he does save his money, and one of the many "richisms" at our house is "move over bacon". so i thought of grandpa when i was looking through these random photos of ethan the other day. 9.29.2008
