California - Porter and Grandma

This 1st image is the perfect picture to start this post. Porter had his grandma wrapped around his little finger from the moment he arrived! He signs please when he needs help getting something, usually a ball that has gone under a table or up high. But he quickly realized my mom would do ANYTHING if he said please. So he would throw a ball and tell her please and watch while she "fetched" it for him. This morning he has tried it a few times on me, but it's not happening. Back to self reliance...
