Theory about Austen’s Love of Grandpas

Perhaps Austen prefers her Grandpas to all others because they never say “No!” to her, or try to pick her up when she doesn’t want to be held, or force her to do anything. On the other hand, Mommy, Daddy and Grandma have to lay down the law: change diapers, strap her into her high chair, carrying her upstairs to change her wet shirt, lay her down for a nap, take away dangerous objects & etc.

Austen, as a spirited child, likes to always have her own way. Mommy likes to say she’s the baby dictator. Austen has strong feelings about what she wants and what she likes.
