Yesterday we were able to eat lunch with my parents as they drove through town. They were going from the Houston area up to Oklahoma and decided to take a bit of a detour through our little town.
We met at H*bby L*bby and then went to have a wonderful lunch together.
I hadn't told the kids who we were meeting - or that we were meeting anyone - so the look of surprise and joy on Juniors face when he saw "Grandfather" was priceless.
As a side note, we read Heidi last year which started Daisy calling him Grandfather and then Junior picked it up. So it isn't that he chose a stuffy sounding name.
And this is something we couldn't do if they were in school . . . or at least I would feel guilty about it.

That's a very fun surprise for the kids... and there are LOTS of things to be learned from grandparents... listening to my inlaws teaches me a lot about history!
ReplyDeleteOh that was a wonderful surprise for your kids!

How fun! I would love to be able to do stuff like that with the kids. It's adorable that they call him Grandfather. Heidi was my favorite movie when I was a little girl.
