Seeing your kids through the eyes of others

Excuse me as I'm feeling a little sappy....

I ran up to the butcher to pick up a few things today and as I'm *just* about to pull out of my spot I turn my head and see that my grandparents have just pulled up.

So I get out and open the door for my grandmother who looks at me and just gives me the hugest smile and then sees that my car has her 2 little munchkins in it.

O-M-G.........when both of my grandparents turned around and saw I had the kids I can't describe the size of the smiles on their faces. It was the sweetest thing.

I realized that I'm so lucky to still have my grandparents and that I get to see how much they adore my kids. Its one thing for me to see how much they love me. I can truly say that as much as they love me, its NOTHING compared to how much they love my kids.

It made my day to see that.

I totally get it! My grandmother passed this year, but I am so thankful she got to spend time with her great grand son. I know it really helped when she was very ill to have him visit. She would be happy no matter how much pain she was in. They would hold hands Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Seeing your kids through the eyes of others

Awww...I wish my grandparents were still alive. My grandmother passed away in May. My DD was her first (and only) great-grandchild and she brought her so much joy. My grandmother died unexpectedly while being treated for congestive heart failiure - but my mom, DD & I were the last people to visit her before she took a turn for the worse and went into a coma. I'm so thankful I chose to go see her in the hospital and "snuck" Sydney in too.
