At Westgate Shopping malls in Nairobi

A woman in one of the big shopping malls in Nairobi is following a grandfather and his badly behaved 3 year-old grandson. It’s obvious to her that he has his hands full with the child screaming for sweets in the candy aisle, cookies in the cookie aisle; and for fruit, cereal and soda in the other aisles.

Meanwhile, Grandad is working his way around, saying in a controlled voice, “Easy, William, we won’t be long, easy, boy.”

Another outburst, and she hears the granddad calmly say,

“It’s okay, William, just a couple more minutes and we’ll be out of here. Hang in there, boy.”

At the checkout, the little terror is throwing items out of the cart, and Grandad says again in a calm and controlled voice,

“William, William, relax buddy, don’t get upset. We’ll be home in five minutes for the real show; stay cool, William.”

Very impressed, the woman goes outside where the grandfather is loading his groceries and the boy into the car.

She said to the elderly gentleman, “It’s none of my business, but you were amazing in there. I don’t know how you did it. That whole time, you kept your composure, and no matter how loud and disruptive he got, you just calmly kept saying that things would be okay.”
Grandad smiled, and the woman said, “William is very lucky to have you as his grandpa.”

“Thanks,” said the grandfather, “but I’m William…….the little brat’s name is Kevin.”
