GRANDparent


I'm sure we've mentioned before that Ivan has 3 awesome sets of grandparents. It seems this group is making up for lost relationship from my generation. In January, Brian's dad visited. His mom visited this month and my parents will be down this summer. We are also looking forward to Auntie Jenn and Uncle John's visit over Easter break. I know it is long miles, expense and effort, but they all go above and beyond and make us all feel royal. Of course Ivan laps up all the attention. We've appreciated so much our family and friends. Our children have everything they need and we haven't had to stress about any of it. I'm excited that our children will have such special ties to relatives that love them so very much.

Grandparents are wonderful! You can never have too many, or see the ones you have too often! I feel especially blessed, since due to the circumstances in my life right now, Harrison and I are living with my parents, which is such a wonderful gift for Harrison, as he has really bonded to my parents. They enjoy the opportunity as well, and it will be hard to move out and not have that daily contact. Although I am certain they will never be far away, and there will be lots of sleep-overs and family dinners to stay connected, as they too will miss Harrison a lot! Maybe I could leave him behind?! KIDDING!!! I'd miss him WAY too much!!!!
