Serena Williams' entrepreneur husband Alexis Ohanian was recently hit by a wave of nostalgia as the latter's grandfather is bringing Ohanian's childhood collection of story books on his way to Williams' house.
The Reddit co-founder also hoped for his daughter Olympia Ohanian to like the Calvin & Hobbes collection of books.
Ohanian, 39, turned to social media to share the news with his followers. Writing about the same on Twitter, he captioned his tweet:
"Grandpa is bringing a bunch of my favorite childhood books down to Florida. I can't wait. I'm hoping C&H holds up for @OlympiaOhanian."
The American couldn't hide his excitement when one of his followers got nostalgic with the mention of Calvin & Hobbes.
"RIGHT?! can't wait to crack 'em open again after all these years," Alexis Ohanian commented.

Ohanian and tennis icon Serena Williams tied the knot in 2017, in a wedding ceremony that was attended by the likes of Beyonce and Kim Kardashian, among others. The duo became parents for the first time in September 2017.
Serena Williams and Ohanian are both quite active on social media, and both do not shy away from updating their fans with family content, including Olympia Ohanian. A few days earlier, Ohanian provided a glimpse of Williams' office, featuring daughter Olympia's adorable portraits. Among the many portraits in the 23-time Grand Slam singles winner's office were pictures of her five-year-old daughter along with her father.
