Fred Atkins is a retired small-business owner living in Cary, North Carolina. He and his wife, Lynda, were living a quiet, peaceful well-deserved retired life until one day, at his invitation, his daughter, son-in-law, and two grandchildren came to live with them! During their seven month stay, Fred came to love the challenge and happy chaos that comes with a pair of toddlers present in his home 24/7. He especially grew to love sitting down with the little ones and reading them their favorite books and stories.
