While we wait

2022
"A boy and his grandmother wait and wait and wait. While they wait, they sit and knit, they stretch, they rock, they dance, they pace, they snack, they talk. But still, time passes s-l-o-w-l-y. And all the while, they 'sit and knit and wait.' What are they waiting for? Spoiler alert! The family's new baby! When mom and dad finally get home from the hospital there is joy and awe--and a special gift for baby, knitted with love. A gentle lesson about patience that is well worth the wait"--Provided by publisher.
