Grandparents day

Today was grandparents day at Sydney's school. I missed it last year and felt like a complete jerk because my daughter was the only one without a grandparent. She had to "share" someone elses. So this time we get the notice in the friday folder and I immediately call my dad. He's thrilled, puts it on his calendar, takes the day off of his "retirement" job. Sydney is excited also, she is so relieved that she will have her grandparents there. I've done good. :-)

So this morning grandpa and meemaw arrive, with coffee for me, I love them! As soon as Sydney hears the doorbell she is up and in the living room, normally waking this child is a small miracle and a large fight. Thanks again dad. :-) Grandpa, Meemaw and Sydney head out the door toward their breakfast and book fair morning together. I can't wait to hear about it when Sydney gets home. What a nice sight watching your parents guide your child down the road toward school. It makes me almost wish we lived closer so they could do these things more often. Almost. It's nice that my dad makes sure to attend these events, I just have to remember to tell him. :-)
