Grandparents Day

Our family has the BEST grandparents and Great grandparents in the world. Today was Gparent day at school and MY grandma and grandpa showed up, along with Mac and Ben's Grandma Edlyn (with brother Gabe and sister Sammy in tow) and Noah and Lydia's Grandma Ronnie and Grandpa Steve. Now of course, we have many more who were with us in spirit. Gma Kathy just got home from spending a week with the little boogers kids and Gpa Dennis has been spending his time recooperating so was ordered to stay home. We felt you and Regina here in spirit, Dennis!  Nana and Poppy were just here in January for over a week and only just arrived home last night, so they were off the hook, although we knew they were here in spirit, too.

I swear each year that it is going to be the last time I subject any family  members to this chaos, but they just keep coming back.  I can't say as that I understand it, but we sure as heck do appreciate it. No pictures this year (I kinda had my hands full) but if you just shut your eyes and picture Ben helping to seat Great Grandpa John and then taking his ticket to get his lunch for him, Mac holding and simultaneously trying to feed, Gabe, so that Gma Edlyn could eat her lunch, Lydia helping her Gramma Ronnie to the table and with her tray and Noah literally popping out of his seat with a great big smile to give GG and Gpa John a big hug...well, you have more than an idea of how great it was.

My heart is all warm and fuzzy.
