On the seventh day God rested. His grandchildren must have been out of town. ~Gene Perret
What is it about grandparents that is so lovely? I'd like to say that grandparents are God's gifts to children. -Bill Cosby
We were really bummed about Cindy and Chuck getting stuck in the "Snowpocalypse" in the DC area. But, Aunt Bonnie and Carlos did a pretty good job making up for it. The girls have had a fabulous weekend in spite of the terrible weather and mucked up plans. It's always good to have a plan B!
The girls are so fortunate to have two sets of grandparents who are very different from each other, but who add so much richness to their lives. The more people you have out there to love your children in this world, the better off they will be. I really believe that. As icing on the cake, my mom's twin sister, Aunt Bonnie, may as well be a THIRD grandma. When Aunt Bonnie's first grandchild, Julie and Goran's daughter, Anneli is born in the spring, Aunt Bonnie will already be well versed in the art of grandmotherhood! My children adore her and she and Carlos rank right up near Santa Claus! In fact Carlos dressed up like Santa at Christmas this year and the girls thought it was hysterically funny. They came over for dessert and coffee after dinner tonight and spent the evening playing Ali and Addie on the Wii. My cup runneth over.
