Workouts for Grandma Susan

Eli loves it when Grandma Susan comes for a visit. I often (only half-jokingly) suggest that he loves it because when she is here he has an incredibly willing playmate to push around, but I guess the reverse can be true too. By way of an example, I came out of the office the other day only to find Eli lounging on a beanbag and a pillow, with Grandma Susan on her hands and knees pushing him around. As you can see in this video, he's pretty comfortable with this arrangement...as you can see from Grandma Susan's grin, I think she enjoys it too. It is probably fair to say that she is slightly less excited with Eli's current plans to put her through a punishing sprint training program (so they can have running races). The other day he said that she needs to do seven sprints one day, just one on the following day, then seven again on the next day and so on, and that she should continue to do it even when she heads home after her visit is over.

PS. In my defence, I do tell Grandma Susan that she can (and should) say no when Eli comes up with 'clever little plans' like this, but Eli generally has her under his complete control.
