For the past few months, my dad has started leaning way back when he stands or walks. This video clip actually isn’t as extreme as it sometimes gets, I just happened to remember to grab my phone to try to catch it on camera. When you hug him sometimes, you have to plant your feet wide apart so that he doesn’t pull you over when he leans so far back.

The oddest unexpected things occur, don’t they. My grandma would shuffle and take the tiniest little steps. I suppose it helps us to slow down and smell the roses. 🙂
